A Few questions..
On the ramp, which way are the bins facing? like when the robots hit them are they hitting the long side or the short side? Because at the kickoff they appeared to be hitting the longer side of the bins but on the diagram of the playing field they seem to be facing the other way...

Bin Placement
With regards to the bin placement on the ramp, let's do some math. The bins are 17 3/4" by 24ish (close enough). The rules state that the bins will be ~3" apart and centered on the ramp.
7 bins * 17 3/4" = 124 1/4" = 10' 4" + 6 * 3" = 11' 10" Ramp is only 12' wide, so the skinny side will be facing the robots. -Paul |
