Re: Dropping Ramp Issues
Just an idea - if you already have an arm on your robot that's used to pick up the ringers / keepers, maybe you can incorporate that into getting your ramps out. Shouldn't be a problem if you use something like a Fisher Price + the kit gearbox, we found the speed of it to be about perfect and it still have a lot of power.

Re: Dropping Ramp Issues
You could always have the pin/lock idea (where the piston pulls away something blocking the ramp from falling) and just spin your bot in the home zone. As long as your bot can spin in a somewhat small circle, then you might be able to pull it off.
