Re: Rule <R09> & <R12> contradictory?
Reguarding R12 - I understand that you can't expand more than 72 inches. Does this maximum also count for the arch swing of a mechanical arm for picking up the tubes?
For example, if our robot is 38 inches and our arm expands say 40 inches outside of our robot, would FIRST not allow this? It would be pretty difficult for a robot to get to the top spider with an arm that is shorter than 34 inches if it didn't have some kind of elevation mechanism. Can someone clarify?
