Re: Picking Two other Robots off the ground
I think there will be only 1 if any robots at a regional who can lift two robots, and lifting two will be the only thing they do. Lifting nearly 450lbs of robot is a LOT of weight and stress on components. It will take careful planning to coordinate such an operation and is very VERY risky.

My advice- DON'T DO IT!

Good luck!
