[FRC Blog] Robots of Unusual Size (R.O.U.S.)

[PAR_WIG1350]

Has anybody considered building a robot that fits in the transportation configuration by standing it on end like a pre-2009 flop-bot?

Example

Granted, it would only need to be used for transportation, so you wouldn't get the impressive flop at the start of the match, but they were still cool. The best variant I have seen was the 179 machine from 2003, but that would be completely impractical this year.
