The main goal for Orbit's construction was to build a climb mechanism that could elevate itself to the thirteen inch high Level 3 HAB Zone platform and park itself there as quickly as possible. Additionally, it would have to be sturdy and powerful enough to slow opposing robots down while also being able to place low hatch panels. The final design exceeded expectations, with our hatch mechanism being able to place on both low and mid-range goals, complemented by a makeshift cargo mechanism to quite literally top things off. Our quick and reliable automated climb made the difference between victory and defeat in many a match, earned us two different awards at two different competitions, and led to our third consecutive year of being invited to both the state championship and the world championship.
