Re: YMTC: Redabot weighs 129.8?
I'll agree that specifying that all additional assemblies need to be complete, or as complete as possible. There are probably other weird gray area scenarios that you could think up for that, of course. For instance, you could have two different length arms or something. They attach to the same pivot on the base at one end and use the same grabber mechanism at the other end. So it's kinda questionable how complete it really is since you wouldn't be swapping out the grabber. So there's always gray areas, they just get resized and shifted around.
Back on topic, though... The current discussion is about the rules as written last year, and I think they're quite a bit more vague on how complete the extra assemblies need to be. So I'll continue to say that as of last year, swapping the motor was probably legal. It'd just be nice if that issue were cleared up for this year.
Think the current rulemakers are reading these YMTC threads as well as last year's Q&A to see where confusion points can crop up in the rules?
