To add to Jenny's comments...we indeed did not change or modify the robot that was passed for inspection. Our can grabbing mechanism was on the bot the whole time but may have been tweeked out of the 78" configuration while practicing some grabs on the practice field. We were certainly not aware of the condition until the referee measured on the field...which was perfectly within his right to do so. We just wish we had been given the chance to correct the circumstance as G7 clearly states we should be allowed to do. 10 seconds at most on to the field to press one small button on our solenoid and the extended arms would drop down to it's retracted transport configuration. No comment about the other circumstances and congratulations to the winners.
