Is it legal to have a climbing mast and winch, were the mast would end up extending below the robot as well? Keeping in mind an overall height of 84 inches and the cylinder diameter of 54.

I read the rules and see I nothing against it.

Thanks, and good luck to all.

Except possibly the BUMPER ZONE rules... Once the mast goes below the robot, that is now the "bottom" of the robot... R25
