Re: Team trailer height

Do you have a robot cart? If so the height of the opening should be height of robot cart + 60" + a couple of inches for clearance. To short of a opening for the ramp door is the thing that annoys us the most about our trailer. When going to outreach events it would be soooooo much easier if we could roll out the robot strapped to the cart. As it is we roll the cart up to the ramp take the robot off and then put them in the trailer separately. The robot will fit in the trailer on the cart but just won't fit through the door.

Of course as soon as you buy it watch FIRST change the rules to a girth limit and for it to be advantageous to have a robot with a starting configuration of more than 60".
