Can each circuit total 9.6 volts (like if you merge a few robots, each one) or does the whole robot have to be less than 9.6 volts?

You can have multiple circuits each not exceeding 9.6 volts

What do you guys think the time for the national winning robot will be?
What would be a good score for States too?

For Nationals, I predict 20 to 25 seconds. Last year's winning bot got 14 seconds in a practice, but it probably didn't do that at Nationals, and it didn't have two separate scoring boxes to deal with.

Gh - I will gasp at that time, for me i think it is not possible for me to get that time. The Nats teams are sure amazing.

i agree, the Lego sorting thing has also added some time, so maybe 45 secs
That is actually what we got at nats last year because the team in front of us got adhesive on the lego and prevented us from getting 14

My least favorite part about Robo-Cross is the fact that you have to pick up coins. Our robot had alot of trouble with that at first but we made it work and now its really good. We got 2nd at regionals! :lol:
A&R-1st in region
Dynamic Planet-1st in region
Fossils-Didn't place
Trajectory-Didn't place

yeah, a claw would have to be amazing to pick coins up, so a sharp scoop must be used
