I don't think I can find any, but 234 and 980 built the robots. Basic automode was to extend and swing an arm across the ramp. Goodbye boxes. 234's had two pivots; 980's had 1 but telescoped out, then telescoped in after being raised to vertical (then latched stowed). After that, they'd climb the ramp or try to defend a stack.
As I recall, 980 got to the boxes first when they went against each other.

In my book the team building experience of the kids training the engineers in the operations on the field would be invaluable. It might not get a trophy but you win far more in the long run.
