In the rule, it says we can only have a maximum height restriction of 6 feet. So if we were going to throw the ball diaganally to one of our teammates, we could only have a maximum height of the throwing mechanism at 6 feet?

Thanks

ThanksRead the current edition of the Manual and Update #1 and #2. <G36> now reads
<G36> Disabled ROBOTS and PENALTIES – If a ROBOT becomes incapacitated (e.g. the ROBOT overturns and can not be righted, the battery falls out, etc.), it may be completely disabled by pressing the E-Stop Button in the corresponding Player Station. ROBOTS that are disabled in this manner can not incur further PENALTIES (e.g. can not receive a PENALTY for IMPEDING). Disabled ROBOTS may be pushed out of the path of travel without PENALTY.

Take a look at that rule again in the new iteration.
It has been deleted once and replaced with something else.

It's a good idea to take a look at the updates. Update #1 deleted the six foot rule.

Thanks Erik you beat me to it... and with better clarity
