Pick & Drop at a Glance

Pick & Drop is a cooperative Drone game played by an Alliance of two Teams on a 12’ x 12’ Field. Drones pick up Orbit Balls and Cargo and drop them into seven Goals, earning more points when a Scoring Object’s color matches its Goal. Drones also score by flying through the Ring Tunnel and by landing on a Field Platform before the three-minute Match ends. Each Round uses one of six Scoring Systems, so what each Goal is worth changes from Round to Round.

Field Overview

The Field includes:

20 Orbit Balls (9 Red, 9 Blue, 2 White)
18 Cargo (6 Red, 6 Blue, 6 White)
3 Racks (1 Long Rack, 2 Short Racks)
2 Drop Tower Goals (1 Red, 1 Blue)
2 Cargo Platform Goals (1 Red, 1 Blue)
2 Pole Goals (1 Red, 1 Blue)
1 Drop Zone Goal
2 Field Platforms
1 Ring Tunnel
10 Cargo Tile Plates

The striped and checkered referee circles sit side by side outside the middle of the top edge. The blue Flight Team Member area wraps around the top left corner and down the left side, and the red area around the top right corner and down the right side. A Field Platform stands in each top corner.

Figure FO-1: Top down image of the Field showing recommended locations for where Head Referee (black and white stripes), Scorekeeper Referees (black and white checkerboard), and Flight Team Members (red and blue) should stand.

Scoring Objects

Cargo: a Red, White, or Blue cube that expands when picked up, to about 2.2” x 2.2” x 2.75” (55 mm x 55 mm x 70 mm).
Orbit Ball: a Red, White, or Blue ball made of three interlocking plastic rings, about 4” across.

On the left, the Cargo: a square crate with a net over its cardboard-box sides and a round disc on top. On the right, the Orbit Ball: three interlocking six-sided rings forming an open ball.

Drop Tower: a tall Goal with a funnel on top. There are two, one Red and one Blue, shown by the color of the funnel and base.
Drop Zone: a wide, short Goal with a funnel on top. There is one, and it has no color.

The Ring Tunnel runs along the left edge of the Field. The two Field Platforms stand at the far right and near right corners, at the ends of the blue and red Flight Station lines.
