Legality of witholding control system post ship
hey everyone
I wanted to ask whether it's possible to send the robot on due day without the electricity system thank you, Team #3038 |
Re: An important question
if by that you mean all the wiring and Crio, and power distrubution, the answer is "no".
You aren't allowed to leave any part of your robot back at the shop once the robot needs to be shipped |
Re: An important question
Can we please rename this thread?
T3_1565, your answer is incorrect. Please refer to section 8.3.4 |
Re: An important question
okay, can you please quote the rule that says it's forbidden? we thought we will be able to leave it behind in order to practice with a similar bot.
thanks again. |
Re: An important question

Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
I know.. all I was saying was apparently the rule I was thinking of was actually set by my team. We ship as much as possible, but its obviously a thing that we do as a team.. again, my apologises.

Rules from previous years do not automatically carry over. Only this year's rules apply. This year's rules include the WITHHOLDING ALLOWANCE. |
Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
oh I see... well there you go! I was right all along (last year) lol...

Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
Here, have some concrete clarification. This is from an old PM of mine with Dave. If he minds me posting it, I'll delete it the moment there's a complaint.

Thanks, all! My team was asking the same thing, and I was about to make a new thread until I read this.

Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
Maybe someone can answer this question for me...
Will the same 40 lb. withholding allowance apply event to event? For example, if I attend a week 1 regional...show up to the competition with 40 lbs of withheld robot and then compete for the weekend, am i then allowed to take 40 lbs. of stuff off the robot again, ship it to my week 4 regional, and then show up there with the 40 lbs. again?? Thanks in advance, Brando |
Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
Just wondering, does the weight of the operator console count towards the 40 lbs?

Wow, was it just Rev F that had the wrong numbering or did every Rev up to the current one have two R18s? Is every post citing specific rules (from section 8) prior to the current Rev incorrectly numbered? |

Re: Legality of witholding control system post ship
But there is a difference between operator console the controls, ie. joysticks and what not, and the electronics inboard the robot that actually control the robot, the inboard operator consul has to actually be counted, just wanted to clear this up because i believe some people are confused.

The Operator Console is automatically permitted to be left out of the shipping crate if desired, but it does not count against the 40 pound limit. That limit is for ROBOT parts. |
