Hi,

I noticed your question in the Q&A forum, and found the official answer "lacking in details".

Since you are rookies I thought I'd make it clear: you CAN use linear actuators, if you remove the built in motor and replace it with a legal 2011 FIRST motor.

This could save you some time in fabrication.

Good luck!
