In other words, you must use the FTC battery.

Sigh. Glad they announced this after FIRST Choice orders could started to be placed.

I highly doubt this was a decision made after 3 days of the game being out.

[team 3311]

in update #1 it states that your mine bot has to be attached to the pole so no lanching

i take it back, G19 is exactly what EricH said

BLUEBOX <G19> states that HOSTBOTS are not allowed to launch the MINIBOT up the pole at the TARGET, or otherwise contribute to the vertical movement of the MINIBOT.

Then could the minibot somehow trigger a device itself (spring loaded) and shoot itself up to the top of the pole?
