Thanks. We'll see if it will work, though the only problem could be accidental damage to the arm. That is the risk though in competitions like this so I guess its no big deal.
I have no response why they would have more than one on the robot. Lets say its for "backup" I mean they know if the bot did not deploy right and they try another bot, even if they make the second deployment, those points would be nullified or even lose more due to penalties

Of course I will convince we need at least 2 mini bots, but not on the robot. The weight and space needed can be utilized more wisely
