Re: Peg height question?

According to page 6 the Arena section, on each column of scoring pegs, there is a 30 inch space from center to center. However, I have been unable to find the height of the bottom peg.

FIRST looks like they've rearranged their site, and seems to have taken down anything game related - probably in an attempt to kill some of their traffic. So at the moment, we're going to have to make designs based on some approximate lowest height, which appears to be around half the 30 inches between pegs (on the left and right, remember that the middle pegs are 8 inches higher). Hopefully they'll make the field drawings available soon. Alternatively, did anyone get them yesterday?

Thanks a lot! Hopefully the combination of the arena section and the game drawings on this page will be enough.

Re: Peg height question?

Team 2502 has been able to snag up all information posted yesterday, and made it available on the link in my signature. I'd go by the approximations already made in the forum for now anyway, since I doubt anyone is ready to start sawing away.

Re: Peg height question?

The wikipedia page is actually inaccurate, and seems to be based on a misinterpretation of the rules. I have changed the page to reflect the Field documents.
