Re: Is this legal

I'm gonna say yes now, although my first reaction was the same.

It is a Commercially available Off The Shelf item (COTS) and as far as I can tell does not violate any other rules other than the possible way that it is secured on the robot.

I would have liked to have seen it held down with 80/20 posts above the weight coming off a right angle from the upright posts rather than just zip ties holding it down.

Other than that, it is a very innovative and creative last minute decision.

I applaud the team for their efforts that seemed to have worked out for them.
