From the
FIRST Q&A System:
Quote:
Q: Rule S03 states that the shooter mechanism must remain within the original starting envelope of the robot. If a robot uses a pitching machine style shooter, followed by a barrel to direct the ball, does the barrel count as part of the shooter mechanism? I assume the intent is to keep moving/dangerous parts out of the reach of other robots?
A:The barrel does count as part of the shooter mechanism and must remain within the original starting envelope.

It sounds like anything that is part of the shooting mechanism (turrets, barrels, etc..) must conform to this rule.
