I don't think I can find any, but 234 and 980 built the robots. Basic automode was to extend and swing an arm across the ramp. Goodbye boxes. 234's had two pivots; 980's had 1 but telescoped out, then telescoped in after being raised to vertical (then latched stowed). After that, they'd climb the ramp or try to defend a stack.

As I recall, 980 got to the boxes first when they went against each other.
