Re: Do minibots need to stay at the top of the pole?
We were thinking about launch our MINIBOT vertically to the top of tower. But the rule <G19> provide something interesting:

<G19> After DEPLOYMENT, MINIBOTS must remain completely autonomous.

I think that if you store some energy (like elastic through rubbers i.e.) on your ROBOT to launch your MINIBOT, it won't be autonomous.
