Re: Low vs. High robot poll

Many people are saying low, but I disagree, your robot should not be very high for center of gravity reasons, but a low robot really limits your building space and your ability to do missions. Also a low robot may be at a disadvantage when pushing doors and such such as the Sally Port and Draw Bridge. Your robot should be somewhere in between. It also depends on the skills of your team, if you are able to make a low robot that can achieve many things, go ahead but if you can't and you are doing it just for the low bar it is not worth it. But this is just my opinion.
