Re: Lost Bag and Tag
By now I assume you have contacted First and found out how to handle the bag but you must get it bagged and tagged ASAP and fill out the paperwork.
To others who claim to be working on parts of their robot or have kept parts of their robot to work on after the stop build period. This is not allowed. You must bag your entire robot and bumpers if you have made them already.
[R19]
The Robot (including items intended for use during the competition in alternative configurations of the Robot, excluding items permitted per Rule[R26]) must be bagged or crated (as appropriate for your event), and out of team hands by the shipment deadline specified in the FRC Administrative Manual, Section 5.
[R20]
Teams must stay “hands-off” their Robot from Stop Build Day until their first competition, during the period(s) between their competitions, and outside of pit hours while attending competitions; there are no restrictions on when software may be developed. Specific exceptions are as follows:
A. On days a team is not attending an event, they may continue development of any items permitted per Rule[R26], but must do so without interfacing with the Robot.
B. Teams attending 2-day events may access their Robots per the rules defined in the Administrative Manual,Section 5.7, Robot Access Period - for Teams Attending 2-Day Events.
[R26]
Teams may bring a maximum of 30 lbs of Fabricated Items to each competition event to be used to repair and/or upgrade their Robot at the competition site. The Operator Console and any battery assemblies (see [R03]-A) are not
applicable.
This means you can assemble spares, manufacture parts that will upgrade the parts currently in place on the robot (i.e. making something that is stronger than the part currently on the robot) or simply hold out parts that are already finished like bumpers, if and only if they total less than 30lbs. Any other items must be assembled at your event.
