Re: Question on mounting PVC for flag

The problem for us is that our entire robot minus arm and ramp is only 12.25" above the ground max. If our ramp is deployed and arm moves which is just under 4' in the starting position, it will certainly rotate and move during the match, thus not give our flag a permanent vertical positioning.
Cant see making a 3' extension just for a flag.
We want to put our flag 18" above the central mass of the robot which is right above 12.25," but they may say "NO," it has to be 18 " higher than our 4' starting point, thus forcing us to create a huge "flagpole."
