I think it would be nice if FIRST decided on rules which were more easily enforceable.
for example, wouldn't it be nicer to say:
Quote:
|
"No two points on the robot may be more than 50" apart (horizontally), in any configuration"
|
This allows slightly bigger robots than a 50" cylinder, but notice that I reduced the number from 54" to 50". I think this would be more easily enforceable and still accomplish the general intent of the rule.
