We also were looking at a number of successful '07 bots (including Pinks!).

My question seems kid of obvious, but... Why Not?

What changes would be required on a well performing ring-placer from '07:
- Bumpers
- Control System Upgrade to cRIO
- Maybe minibot (probably)
- Autonomous Sensors

I know that no one is really just going to recycle their '07 bot right but as designs get stabilized, this makes a good engineering discussion. Is this bot too big; can it make it inside the 60" cylinder during operation or get down to the 5' height and within the frame for starting configuration? Can it reach to about 9.5 feet and place a tube? Can it handle the different sized tubes well?

I am interested from a design standpoint.

Thanks!
