We placed our arm low on the bot largely because that was where the frame was - low to the ground. It gave us a lower center of gravity and enabled our bot to stay very well balanced while stacking one or two tetras.
You would have to ask Ricky Q. for pictures though, I can't seem to find any at full extension.
