Spill the Beans!

This is a multi-point Mission Model that has 3 challenges: push or pull the chest, spill the beans, and push the red "X" flag down. Completing all 3 tasks would give the most points.

I designed this challenge with 2 solutions to get the beans out: to push the bean chest out of the main frame-either push the wall from behind or pull using the green handle. Spilling the beans and pushing the red "X" flag down are solved only one way (although the bean chest can be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise to spill them out).

Having experience competing in VEX Robotics competitions, I designed this model with the hope that, if chosen, it challenges competitors to build a robot that can perform 3 important functions that show ingenuity and creativity: push, pull, and rotate.
