Re: Rule R3.b clarification
Technically, yes. You should account for bolt heads when sizing your robot. Realistically, we aren't using a sizing box, so getting super precise with the measurement shouldn't be a huge deal. In the past few years the rules have exempted minor protrusions, and while that wording isn't present In the rules this year I think most teams will assume it.
As always, the only way to know for certain is to ask on the Q&A - " are minor protrusions such as bolt heads included in the transport configuration dimensions provided in R3 part b?"
