Correct, as per <R13>, emphasis mine:

<R13> For the purposes of determining compliance with the weight and volume limitations
specified in Rule <R11>, these items are NOT considered part of the ROBOT and are NOT
included in the weight and volume assessment of the ROBOT:
• The 12V battery and its associated half of the Anderson cable quick
connect/disconnect pair (including no more than 12 inches of cable per leg, the
associated cable lugs, connecting bolts, and insulating electrical tape) on board the
ROBOT,
• Any STANDARD BUMPER assemblies included on the ROBOT that are in
compliance with Rule <R08>, up to a maximum of 15 pounds,
• The FLAG is not considered part of the ROBOT (however, the flag holder specified in
Rule <R17> IS considered part of the ROBOT, and is included in the ROBOT weight
and volume),
• The OPERATOR CONSOLE.
NOTE
- Weight limit excludes the 12 volt
battery and Anderson cable half.
- Weight and volume limits exclude any
STANDARD BUMPERS constructed
consistent with Rule <R08>.
- Weight and height limits exclude the FLAG
However, for all other purposes the items listed above are considered part of the ROBOT
and must comply with all other applicable rules and requirements.
