What about 254s level 3 climber? It could reach the 3rd level in 6.4 seconds. I was talking to one of their students in St. Louis and he told me that all the robot motion all the way to the 2nd rung was completely autonomous. After that drivers manually reached the 3rd rung and pulled themselves up. It was a very common design, however the level of engineering, innovation, and skill really demonstrated why 254 can year after year crank out amazing robots. They really perfected the most generic level 3 climbing style!
