Minibot design

i had an idea and i thought i would share it here;
what if a team were to make their mini bot in such a way that its deployment system was identical to this years game piece, that is what if the outer surface of the mini bot mirrored a section of the circular tube. this way any team that had a tube manipulator that was relatively standard could borrow the mini-bot.

at the begging of the match the loaned mini-bot could merely rest on top of the host bot, so that as soon as they started moving it would fall off, then the host bot could go back to retrieve it before the final 10 seconds, and hopefully deploy it successful

thoughts?

Re: Minibot design

<G47> From the start of the MATCH until it is DEPLOYED, the MINIBOT must remain on the
HOSTBOT.

Re: Minibot design

then perhaps a mini-bot with a "shell" that mirrors the tube, so that a tube, and the mini bot, can be grappled at the same time, with the same grapple.

Re: Minibot design

It would have to be within the dimension restrictions, and have to stay on the robot
