So, only two people will be able to set up over the course of sixty seconds (you also may not want too many pairs of hands on your robot to make transforming more efficient). Depending on how elaborate your robot setup has to be, you will want to consider modularity in your design for parts extending outside of the TC, and train the drive team on expeditious setup.
60 seconds setup and takedown is important ,a team can not delay matches.
