Re: Building a claw post-ship
Eric,
I am reading R23 and R24 together.
Please also read the blue highlight under UPGRADE PARTS for an explanation.
I do not believe it is the intent of the GDC to allow you to continue with building robot subsystems and bring these completed subsystems to a competition if they are less than 30 lbs.
I do believe that the GDC has agreed that a team may design and redesign anything for the robot after ship. A team may also build one of these designs between ship and events. The team may not bring that system to a competition in an assembled form. They may bring parts and materials that can be assembled at the event. In my mind, that is an attempt to give teams the same advantage for building.
