Yes, FIRST frowns upon field damage.

You can get as close as you want. It all depends on your robot design. If you're shooting the ubertube somehow, use trigonometry to figure it out, otherwise if you're using an arm of some sort, figure out how the piece hangs then calculate how high and how far you need to go to place it. I'd be more specific, but I don't know how you plan to place the pieces.

Good luck, though!
