Re: 1678's Roughly 1 Second Minibot

The real difficulties with this design (there were 3 of them at DC -- 233, 190, and 1089 I think) were reliability of keeping the minibot "stuck" to the ramp while the match goes on. If it isn't in its initial spot every time, the results may vary match-to-match -- and I promise you that there is plenty of contact is some of the games this year.

233 seemed to do it the best; if you have issues in St. Louis, perhaps give them a holler.
