Re: Starting Heigh versus Shipping Height: A FIRST Trick?
My team is building a robot that is 6 feet tall.

I have no problem with the fact the rules are not cross-referenced; there really is no reason to do so. In fact, I absolutely hate it when there are cross references, it makes me want to immediately jump to the place they're pointing out. It also stops me from getting the important part of the rule, too.

I also cannot imagine any team making a robot that cannot be disassembled somewhat. Theres got to be somewhere where you can take off 2-4 inches... maybe take off the wheels, or tilt the robot a bit.

Last of all, FIRST is not out to trick anyone! Do you really think that they would go against the GP they've been advocating for so long? What an absurdity.
