It depends on how you're doing on your withholding allowance. If you leave all of your wires hooked up, it's no longer in its COTS state, it has been modified to fit the function of your robot, if only slightly. You can still bring that sort of thing in, just make sure it (plus any other parts you bring) is under the 30 pound limit. The other option is taking it apart and wiring it up at competition, which could take away time from other things, like getting the rest of your robot ready and going to practice matches. There aren't restrictions against coding during this period, so do as much of that as you want.
