To my knowledge, there is no rule that prevents being on the floor (the carpet), reaching the horizontal bar and lifting your robot from this position to qualify for HANGING.

Please quote the rule you think disallows this and explain if your case if it is not obvious from the rule you quote.

As I read the rules, I don't see that it is illegal.
