Question How many Building to go up ramp?

My team is planning on adding a deployable ramp to this years robot. That being said, how many teams are building their robot to be able to climb the 20 degree ramp need for the bonus points. Please vote we want to get a sense of how many are. Thanks

Leave any comments or thoughts.

I believe every team should design their robot to climb up a ramp.

But my vote is yes, we are

Re: How many Building to go up ramp?

Unless something drastically changes, we should be able to climb a 20 degree ramp. We have the clearance. I think that it would help teams climb your ramp if it had some grip to it so that climbing your ramp is much easier than climbing a ramp with a surface like HDPE.
