Going for 3 robots on Ramp?

Eh, not quite. In 2010, robots had to be built in a way that would allow someone else to hang on them, while correctly predicting the hanging apparatus of their teammates. There are a ton of unknown variables there.

This year that isn't quite as true. Most bots can be predicted to be roughly 120 lbs (its strategically a good reason to aim for the weight limit even if you don't need to otherwise), they have set size parameters that many people will probably fit, and only one robot technically has to be able to drop the ramp so to speak. This invites a lot more potential then 2010.
