This is interesting, as in playoffs it would close the gap of point difference between the value of a RP from gears vs an RP from fuel
good find but this will totally be fixed in future rules because as they are now a pilot during auto could just take the prepositioned gears and get the first two rotors spinning for 120 pnts

the two rules that make me believe this are H10 which states gears cant be moved after they complete a gear set and get a rotor spinning, which moving the prepositioned gears would not violate and A05 which states the reserve gear cant be moved in auton, but this doesnt apply to prepostioned gears
