Re: Lowering the Bar?
Yeah, they were raising and lowering all the time at Richmond. Our robot had a caribbeaner on it's main hook and a solid worm-gear-driven arm (instead of flexible PVC or something) and the first time they lowered the bar our robot got stuck for 5 minutes... the refs weren't happen, luckily it was during practice matches They eventually let teams get off the bar without lowering it.
