Re: Continuous Rotation Servos
For the record, this came up in the Q&A in 2010. The Q was is if a continuous rotation servo was legal. And if the team could modify a servo to be continuous rotation. The answer to the first part was that it was legal if it followed R52-B, which was "An unlimited number of COTS servos with power less than 4W." The second part was deemed illegal, so a team can't modify their own servo for continuous rotation.
