Exclamation Re: New for 2006: 3 FOOT FlAgS on ROBOTS!
But even the fact that you can view it easier, it can cause problems, like for example, I don't think that our manipulations team knows that there is going to be a flag hanging around above our manipulations (can't get into details as I don't even know what their doing). If i'm not mistaken, the flag that is 12" by 12" which I might be wrong, but that is pretty big for a robot that can only be 5 foot high. Think about the fact that since the flag can be 6 feet high, some teams will be unloading and the short drivers at the side driver stations won't see anything, which is a violation of the rules. I want to see FIRST dig themselves out of this one.
