Re: Robot ideas

Wouldn't a team that is building a defensive-oriented robot or low scorer want to sacrifice weight and be 6 ft tall? That way it parks in front of wherever the opposing team is trying to score, and blocks two spiders, and it would just have to push the scoring robot to try and stop it from scoring up high.

while i'm thinking, couldn't said team instead build a 6 ft tall flop bot(so it starts like l, that was ramp shaped (but adjustable,) and then flat, and then fall over at the begining, and then at the end, use pneumatics or something to bring the ramp end down(to fit within the rules), and let the two robots drive on top? ______
