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.

I was a little concerned at first as well. But i have a challenge for you. Take Any FRC robot from a past comp and see if you couldn't find someplace to fix the flag to stick up 12" from the top. I think you'll find it easier than you think. this should be especially easy this year since you don't need clearence for moving arms.
