Update #3

Re: Update #3
Doesn't look too ground breaking. The exact method for calculating servo power is really nice, and so are the clarifications for tape and the pole material.
Oh, and servos on the mini-bot are pretty nifty too. |
Re: Update #3
I thought the wording change on <R92> C. No more then one 12V rechargeable...
It used to say exactly. Are some teams not using a battery? |
Re: Update #3
Slip rings are no longer disparaged.

Re: Update #3
::rtm:: So we can use cylinders and tanks other than those included in the KOP...
|
Re: Update #3
I wonder how one would control a servo without a NXT and FTC servo controller? Can you control them with simple switches like you would a motor?

Note the change to <G07>:

I guess the question then is how many LOGO PIECES are actually available for each match? Just enough to equip each FEEDER STATION with 3 sets in accordance with <G10>, or enough to meet that requirement plus more? I've been assuming the former, but don't have any justification for that assumption. Thoughts? |
Re: Update #3
Hmmm, so the FTC lego power switch isn't allowed? We were using that to activate the minibot motors...
Edit: oh wait it is a tetrix part, phew. Its just mounted on lego parts. |

Re: Update #3
I smell more changes to MINIBOT rules on the horizon.
Also: Are the Tetrix servos of any added value to providing the MINIBOT with upward motion, supplementing the Tetrix motors? EDIT: Furthermore: YAY! Slip Rings! Teams can finally deal with wires on rotating masses in ways they should have been able to 10+ years ago. |

Have magnets have disappeared from the list of approved components?

I had a similar initial reaction to the change. Then I though that if that were the intent of the change, it would have made more sense to remove the "or during the MATCH" phrase instead of changing UBERTUBE to GAME PIECES, especially since this is in the Pre-Match section of the rules. |
