Re: pic: Here is our final primary design.

I really like this design, from an 'overall' perspective. It fixes several issues with a single-orientation human-player-fed lift. It also looks to keep c.g. in check when lifting 3 totes high enough for a 4th tote to to slide down the ramp underneath it. Those totes don't stand a chance!

I applaud your choice to do a 4-stack. A 5-stack is definitely cool, but I agree with others who've stated that capping a 5-stack is tough - probably not doable by the average team on a consistent basis, when compared to what else the average team could be doing to create points.

You may also have a nice setup to add a passive guide system for a noodle into a RC. You're already at the right place to get a noodle, and I can't imagine a noodle guide would be terribly complex or interfere with the lift. That may be another avenue to investigate once this bot is built.
