Re: Ramp dimensions

if you are thinking about making a rampbot, make sure that your angle is not too extreme and that basically any robot would be able to get up onto it. Remember last years ramp and how steep/short it was, and that atleast 30-40% of the robots were not able to consistently get up on it. Also remember this is going to be a last minute dash for the most part and robots will only have maybe one shot to get up onto the ramp, so it should be fairly easy for them to get up.

Good luck!
