By process of elimination, I guess it was me then who mentioned it :)
Grabbing the broomstick, which is like a few feet (maybe even a meter) below the
beam, would be quite hard I think. However, if it could be done, it would
almost guarantee a win for that robot everytime, right? I dunno. Still don't
like it.
Another post got me thinking: what about going back to "old-shool" for this
contest ???? Like the early rtl events ? ONE RIS set. Period.
That would certainly solve the maximum weight debate? It would also make for
very funky robots with translucent orange wings (for max weight).
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
