No, you arent violating the principal of ship, but what if someone doesn't just settle with driver training. FIRST would never know. I personally think its an unfair advantage, however a 2nd bot is legal.

I know and respect the six weeks of build time, which is why i made sure that all the code was done beforehand. Now all we are doing is tweaking variables in our fixit window, which probably arent the right tuning values for the real robot anyway.
