Re: Recycling Container Placement
The Scoring Platform doesn't count towards total robot height, so you can build a robot 78'' tall and still drive on the scoring platform. Having said that lifting a bin ~5'' from the bottom doesn't seem feasible for most teams, I just can't see it being stable enough once 8' in the air.
