I think you're reading that rule incorrectly Katie.
"At the time of robot inspection, you must present all mechanisms that you will use on the robot during the entire competition event... Only mechanisms that were present during the inspection may be added, removed or reconfigured between matches." Means that you must pass the inspection with everything that will ever be on your robot installed. This means that all of them combined must be under 130lbs. If you change the systems, you have to be re-inspected.

I suppose in theory you could design three or four different systems, with the robot being in weight limits if only one of them was on, but every time you swapped out the system, you would need to be re-inspected. Have any teams done this, I wonder?
Your wrong bucko,

she is right, if you have lets say...3 modular systems, you present all of your modular peices, and weigh them all with the robot, but not all of them at the same time, you wiegh them with the robot individually. and the modular parts cannot exceed 130 with the robot.
