Right now we are building a pneumatic system to launch the ball, but we're wondering if our final idea is actually legal according to FIRST rule book. Are we allowed to have two individual low pressure branches coming off of the high pressure system? Both would have 60 psi regulators.

R82
“Working” air pressure on the ROBOT must be no greater than 60 psi and must be provided through one primary adjustable, relieving, pressure regulator.

You must only use one primary adjustable, relieving, pressure regulator. After that you can have as many regulators as you like.

Nope. You get one primary regulator per R82.

You are allowed storage tanks on the low-pressure side, however.
