Tilting Robot for better shot?
Is it legal to tilt the frame of the robot (such that the bumpers are no longer within the bumper zone) during the last 20 seconds of the match, to get a better angle while shooting the red or blue Frisbees?

This action is the same action many robots take in order to climb the pyramid. I have not seen any rules that differentiates this action from the action of climbing the pyramid. Any thoughts??
