Using Wood

[fredliu168]

I think I know the answer to this question, but my team has been bugging me for ages to ask, so here it goes.

Can we use wood for VEX?



Also, can we enter 2 championship events. We are going to GTA Championships, but we are also considering Penn Championships in March. As well, can we change our vex robot between the GTA and the Penn championships.

Thanks for bearing with me,

Fred Liu

Can we use wood for VEX?
No. Only official Vex Robotics parts or additional parts from VexLABS (with the exception of the pneumatics) are legal as per <R5>.

Also, can we enter 2 championship events?
You can legally enter as many as you want, however you are only eligible to win awards at the first two you attend.

As well, can we change our vex robot between the GTA and the Penn championships?
Yes. There are no restrictions regarding changing or modifying your FVC robot between competitions.
