Re: Are you lifting another robot?

I can get some hard #'s later. One of my school's teams has a 18-ish" forklift that can be configured for a variety of frame types. Basically they orient the forks for the drive train of the partner. The forks are 'bent' diamond plate and the lift can push up some heavy weights without issue. The lift combined with the defensive drive train (that won them champs last year) won them a qualifier; we'll see how they do at states in late Feb.

Re: Are you lifting another robot?

Our team is ignoring the liffting gameplay completely, it immobilises both robots and in the meantime our team can place 4 or 5 rings on the top row of the rack, giving us quite a reasonable score without the need to lift the robot, plus if the opposing alliance is lifting, we can claim any pegs we want to at the last second, giving us an even greater score bonus.
