...., which is found in rule <R16> of section 8 of the manual, "The Robot"
Quote:
<R16> Once the MATCH has started, the ROBOT may assume a PLAYING CONFIGURATION that exceeds the size dimensions specified in Rule <R11>. While in the PLAYING CONFIGURATION, the ROBOT may expand up to a maximum horizontal dimension of 80 inches (e.g. all parts of the ROBOT must fit within an imaginary 80-inch-diameter upright cylinder). There are no height limits for a ROBOT in its PLAYING CONFIGURATION at any time after the start of the MATCH.

Please note that although the 28 x 38 x 60 starting configuration limit excludes the bumpers, the 80 inch diameter playing configuration includes the bumpers. Rule R13 specifies that the exclusions (bumper, battery, flag) apply to Rule R11, not R16. |
