Re: How many seconds to climb the rope?

According to our calculations, using a CIM with a 64:1 BB220 gearbox, and assuming a 150 lb robot (this includes bumpers and battery) we should be able to climb in ~4 seconds. Given that it'll take a little bit to line up I expect that we'll be able to get the 50 points if we start the attempt with 15 seconds remaining in the match.
