Hey, Can we have balls that stick over the five feet limit on are robot? Do the ball count as part of the robot?

Q: In section 5.3.2.1., rule R08 it states: "The robot may not exceed the 60-inch height restriction at any time during the match." My question. If the robot is made to haul balls around, may the balls break the 60" top restriction?

A:Yes, but you must meet the size requirements for the start of the match specified in G12.
