Re: Moving Mobile Goals

I just wanted to add to your message. You MAY raise the goal as long as you do it by contact with the metal edge. Just not from anywhere else.
thanks

Bob



QUOTE=Mike522]From what I saw at kickoff both in the chiars during the uplink and the brainstorming sessions FIRST ha dmade it clear that you may only grab the edge of the goal. You may not grab the PVC pipes / you may not raise the goal.

According the FIELD diagrams here is what I dug up

2004 FIRST Elements Moveable Goal

Item # 6 Qty 6 Description 1x1x1/8" Steel Angle Length 24" Remarks None

Steel Edging is cut to 2' pieces


Rule 24: Robots can only grab a mobile goal by the top metal edge of the goal platform perimeter. No part of a robot can extend under the base of the mobile goals. Robots may never grab or attach to the poles. If a robot grabs any other part of the mobile goals or extends under the base of the mobile goal, the referee will give one warning. If they referee decides that the team is dis reguarding that warning, the teams robot will be disabled and the team will be disqualified
