Re: Loading Zone Questions? What needs to be in...
Q:Regarding <G17>: What are the parameters for being "in" a loading zone?
A:The robot base and / or drive train must be touching the loading zone. The intent of this rule is that you must be in the loading zone. By making it blatantly obvious that you are in the loading zone, you will draw far less attention from the referees.
So, I'm not expecting it to be allowed that you have just an arm touch the loading zone base.
Edit - Sorry, just saw it's further discussed http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=32797
Would be great if there weren't 20 different threads for the same topic....
Sounds like there's still questions as what all could be considered "the robot base".
