Re: how tall is the pole

From the sensor to the floor it is 122 inches.

Of course, the platform at the bottom is 12 inches and the deployment line is 18 inches above that, so technically if you get the minibot right against the deployment line it will only have to travel 92 inches.

Re: how tall is the pole

To figure it out, check out the official field drawings here:
http://usfirst.org/uploadedFiles/Rob...20Elements.pdf

Start with page 46, which references all the diagrams used to construct the minibot tower.
