How is it impossible to remove without running the motors?
It may be difficult during a match cause of compression factors which is indeed a good thing when trying to hold onto a tube, but when I can pull a tube out of that gripper fairly easily because of an open gripper design, it's not impossible.

I would like to know where " impossible to remove an inflated tube without running the motors" logic comes from.
