: Hmm... but would you have to make an additional mini-robot to play in it? That could be expensive, considering all the mini-motors and mini-control systems you'd need. In other words, what would be the purpose of an arena that you can't practice in?

Hey guys, the mini-field is what we use to brainstorm our robot design on. It helps put something solid to ideas for very little time, effort, space, and money. (the latter 2 of which we are very lacking). We do not make functional robots to run on it, just foam-board designs and the like. For the real robot, we will try to make a goal and the ramp life size at some point for testing, but that's still up in the air...
