You are right it is a pretty small bot the frame is in the 20" x 23" neighborhood. Tight fit for all of the electronics but doable. The arms would have to be extended up right to fit inside the frame perimeter/starting config, but would be shorter than 60"

The 54 in. cylinder is not fixed to a specific reference point on the ROBOT when the ROBOT is contacting the PYRAMID. In other words, if a 54 in. right cylinder with a height of 84 in. could, in at least one orientation, fit around the ROBOT, the ROBOT is in compliance with [G23-1]-A.


Thank you GDC. I don't have to pull my hair out now. I only had to give away about half of the trade secrets.
