Where is your team planing on climbing from? You can choose multiple options if your robot is capable of such :slight_smile:

The floor. :wink:

I hadn’t thought of that :wink: very impressive idea!!!

We’re climbing from the corner. We realized early on that there is very little room on the inside of the pyramid for two robots on the 3rd level so we decided climbing to the 3rd level on the corner would be better for our alliance.

We are also climbing from the corner because of space issues at top and the swaying motion involved in inside and outside climbing. I believe it will be hard for a robot to climb that involves a lot of driver control because of limited visibility.

I am very surprised to see corner climbers leading this poll. So far I’ve seen three legitimate climbers posted on CD and none of them have been of the corner variety.

Now I do remember those. Still, I’ve seen quite a lot of inside climbers. Maybe people are keeping their corner climbers under wraps.
