Re: Risk of the Lift?

True enough. Most people wont be sitting in the home zone with like 30 secs left in the match to be sure someone knows there set up for the whole ramp thing. I think I lift would be much faster if pulled off right. As I posted in another thread A forklift can lift a lot more than its own weight with no worry of tipping, and even if there was a chance build safety arms or something on the side so at most the robot tips a bit and wont fall off. One foot isn't much so anything is possible really.. it will depend on the situation. but a lift is do-able.
