Re: Picking Two other Robots off the ground
Just make a pair of bars to either side that can slide underneath a robots chassis. Most bots have at least an inch of clearance off the floor if not a bit more. Drop the bars have the other bots drive on top of them and then you can haul all three up, assuming the weight is reasonably distributed.
A crude pic ========= [...........] ========== [ ... ------------[...........]------------ ...... ] [......................[...........].........................] [ ... ------------[...........]------------ ...... ] .========= [...........] ========== Bot 1 ........... Your Bot ........... Bot 2 I think that gets my point across? Idk if it is reasonable within the finale config but, hey. Edit * that pic was a pain, should have done it in paint.
