Any team that gets a minibot to climb has done well. It isn't a matter of good or bad, just a question if your design is going to be more or less competitive measured against other minibots. According to many posts on this forum, there are several minibots able to climb in 2 or less seconds and many have indicated times in the 3 second range. If you want to improve your time, consider looking through this and other related threads for some ideas to help your team out. Consider modifying your gear ratios and reducing weight to reduce your climbing time, and keep trying to improve!
