YES.

any ideas yet as to the times we might see on the day of the contest.

30 seconds?

Average speed of 0.44 km/h.
Yes, I think that would be doable.
Let the anti-X-rope-climb-time boasting begin!

20 min.
That's possible too, if you design your robot
to play connect4 with itself on the way up :)


12.4 milli-seconds ?

Sure.  OK, covert to meters, divide by time, carry the 1, ....
but wouldn't that mean that the 'bot would have to travel
at about Mach 1 up the rope?
In that case, it would cause a sonic boom, and shatter all the
windows, and we would never be invited to the Oakwood library again!
OK.  Let's aim for this.
