For the second, among many other potential issues, you will need to deal with having the battery, the cRIO and other heavy things onboard to be considered a robot. Also, how will you avoid unsafe operation?

Check out flying ball, no unsafe operation unless their is a control issue, in some ways no different than a ground based bot.

the 5 second rule. Doh.... then it would nee to land. as long as partner has flat spot with whole in it to land on we are good.
