Re: How are robots lowered?

For our hanging device we would tether and lowering our boat hook. However our current plan has us dangling pulling ourselves all the way to the top so we will have to use our tallest member to reach the tether port. Now whats really interesting is that our tallest point on the robot when suspended is 22 ft.

Re: How are robots lowered?

all we did was go onto the field and pick the robot off the bar (from its hanging state) and carried it off...
