I think that our driver picked up the bin from the top of the ramp. Since our robot was on a slant, the bin wound up somewhat slanted in the jaws. However, when we put the bin down, it settled down nicely.

Our real claim to fame is the telescoping arm attached to the top. It can rotate 360 degrees, and can be raised up to any height. When fully extended, it is quite impressive.
