Re: Rule G7B and Answer to Question 58
It depends on your attachment device. If your plan was to have some sort of hook that hung on a handle of an RC, I would absolutely say the RC is supporting that part of your robot. You should design whatever mechanism you are planning to be supported only by the floor, platform, or ramp. As the rules are currently written those are the only things your robot can be "fully supported" by.
