Mason,
Please remember that inspectors and IFI personnel need to be able to see the RC while the robot is powered.
As a reminder to all, entanglement issues are investigated to make sure "YOU" can continue to play. If another robot should get entangled in hoses and wires on your robot, you will likely receive more damage and may stop altogether.

Please also note that the team compliance statement on the inspection form has a place for the Team Inspector as well as captain and mentor.
