Hello! I would like to know if we're allowed to have two appendages sticking out of the robot frame at the same time. Thanks!

You can infinitely many appendages as long as they fit in the 20" rule.

For an authoritative answer see Q1 in the Q&A. Which, of course, mostly agrees with Jay and says you can have multiple appendages. I don't believe you're allowed an infinite number, though. If you manage to build such a robot please make sure to bring it to Lee's Summit MO on your $100,000 per event speaking tour - I'd really want to see it. :yikes:

Keep in mind that every appendage you stick out is one more appendage that has a chance of being broken though.

Right, thanks!
