Re: Duct Tape? Anyone?
It's been ingrained in me over the years that duct tape is always a big no-no on FRC robots, so I always assumed it was explicitly disallowed by the rules.
However, this year the students on my team wanted to use an 8" diameter air duct angling elbow as a passive angler for our shooting assembly and wanted to secure and smoothen the elbow joiners with ducting tape (to which I reacted -- illegal!!!). However, after looking over the rules and realizing that this is not actually an illegal material, this application seems a bit more appropriate to me.
