Even this is tough. There are a bunch of people with a good view of you if you try to do this, including the referee who is standing at the end of the white line.

One problem with enabling your robot early is you don't know when the game is going to start. If you have a reliable way of predict that, then you are slumming & probably should be doing something other than FRC.

Everything is over managed switches so should be difficult to directly interfere with another robot. Although certain combinations of robots play havoc with the FMS system. Keep in mind network traffic is monitored. Consequences for being found out is likely to be severe for the team & individual.

Agreed. And given there aren't any dynamic elements this year, there's not significant benefit either.
