Telescoping arms would work. 15 feet long.
15 Feet is a bit to short. Robots need to be in Zones 1 & 5 to count as 10 points for both alliances. Zones 2+3+4 measueres to be 28ft. So your robot needs to touch ground just over 28ft from A to B.

So what happens now?
With the TieBreaker, I assume it will end in either:
1) No Multiplier, No Win
2) 3x to both teams, everybody wins
3) Coin Toss

The most fair of a situation in that case I think would be my #2. If you have that big of a fluke to a match, you deserve the bonus. After that, my #1 would be fair because nobody 'really' won the the match. A coin toss in my eyes for a match would seem overly unfair to the 'loser' of the toss because they are in equality to the 'winner' for that match.

The most likely I see to happen in that is No Muli, No Win
