Re: Building a model field with limited space?

I think FIRST is missing an opportunity with their "team drawings" in that they assume teams have the space to house some of the larger field elements. We actually published a CAD model of our high goal last year that could fold in half for storage. It made transporting it and storing it a lot easier.

Personally, I feel FIRST should really address this with the version of the field elements that they release to teams.

That being said, there is nothing stopping a team from only building partial field elements. If teams are doing this then I encourage them to release CAD drawings so other teams can benefit.
