Re: Pre-charing pneumatic air tank
IF you are using the compressor that is controlled by the robot using your robot's power supply and running it through the robot, I am not sure why they would ask you to not use it.

The reason for this rule is to keep all components regulated and all people in the area safe. If you were doing this correctly, I am not certain why they would ask you to stop. Maybe to stem the tide of other teams charging in a questionable manner?
