Problem is, you can't have the flag above 6'. So, you can mount the thing 1' above the ground. The *small* obstruction is caused by the fact that you can't have it on an actuated part of the robot, and if you lift it up, you still have an obstruction, somewhere. Oh well, I doubt anyone cannot live with a 5 degree "no shoot" zone.

Only if your robot is 2 or 3 feet tall (depending where you measure from on the holder, top or bottom). If you have a full height robot, the top should be 4' up. If you only have a kitbot, your choice.
