Re: Hopper?

It seems that a full height robot is not even necessary in the game due to a lot of rules regarding defending and distance between you and opposing robots. 3 balls being collected at an angle doesn't even need to be taller than 36". And with all the rocking and tipping that may occur when crossing the ramp or bump, a shorter robot may be better.
