 The teams who have the best chance at success are the ones who know where they can save time and money on machining by using or using part of some premade equivalent.

Re: pic: Kettering Iwo Jima
How long has it been taking to get robots off of the pyramid? I haven't been watching any of the streams, but one of my worries was that the belay system and requirements of volunteers and students to remove robots would be a bit slow and tedious. Is that proving to be the case?

Re: pic: Kettering Iwo Jima
I've been seeing people lifting their robots off manually, or robots that have release valves that lower themselves.
I have barely seen the belay used, but I haven't exactly been paying attention the whole time either!

3773 in the picture shown took a long time to get down because it swung around a lot while climbing. I think it got stuck inside of the pyramid. There was one match they needed to get a ladder for to get them down. 4819 was another robot that climbed for 30 points every match, and it took maybe a minute to use the belay system. Robots that climbed for 10 were usually just lifted off of the pyramid without the use of the belay system.
