I know a robot that can get them off the top tof the bridge . hehehe

Oh i'm sure thats a wonderful robot and that most conventional king of the hill robots won't stand a chance against it. Kudos to the technokats for that. Under those arms are probably motor assemblys that have wheels forced into the ground which are powered. My team had a design like that but we opted against it. So you can't turn it, you probably can't even push it, or get past it other than limboing under the bar. So how do you propose getting by it?

Well its pretty simple actually, you just stick an arm under its wing in that nice areaunder it and.... lift! Yeah my teams arm is strong enough to lift a robot, so while we're not allowed to remove you from the ground, you're not going to have any traction while we get tons!, so our two wheel drive boy can push you right off the top and down the other side.

I just love our arm!
