Let me guess. The little pieces of PVC pipe on there now will be replaced by something longer, that allows you to encircle the ball. You will then lift, and the entire "platform" thing will tilt so that you are supporting the ball vertically above your robot. Then sidle up to the overpass and tip it off. Am I close?
you are good, lol....i'll post a picture of our design to scale drawn out (we dont have CAD programmers or anyone familiar with that so we use pen and paper / board and chalk)

our only limit right now is the 80 inch "cylinder" rule 16
