Re: Minibot Rules

Sheesh, maybe we missed something in our prototyping. For the life of us we couldn't get any sort of minibot to 'launch' up a pole with enough efficiency to hit 8', let alone hit it with enough force to trip a sensor...

Though I suppose that a PVC piece that gets velcroed together around the pole is something that we didn't try. If only there weren't a snow day today...

It would be such a shame if a velcroed PVC pipe consituted a pole-climbing minibot. (Just my opinion though)
