Re: pneumatic cylinders and motors with wires

I don't think there are any specific rules that require you to attach your wiring in any particular way. If that ball pickup assembly starts the match inside the frame perimeter, then you can do it pretty much however you see fit.

You'll want to make sure they don't pose an entanglement risk to other robots, and that they aren't prone to being pulled out or tugging on (and breaking) the motor's electrical terminals. It might even be a good idea to include some sort of guard around the motor itself to keep it from accidental damage.

I still don't understand what you want to know about mounting the pneumatic components.
