Re: Rebuild

You might be able to pull it off depending on what you are changing and whether or not you are reusing the parts your taking off.

i assume you would maintain your gear boxes, motors and stuff like that that would be the basics of you robot. if you had a well worked out plan you could rebuild your entire robot on qualification day by working with extruded aluminum or item as some would call it. Also working with what ever frame work parts or other pieces that could be salvaged. to increase your time you are allowed some time to work on components at you home shop so if you have a plan and start pre fabricating stuff then the rebuild would go together faster but remember their is only 25 pounds to work with here.

so in conclusion it could be done. whether or not you pull it off is another story. if you have the plans and really dedicate to it you could do it. However i will say you have to be sure that you know you could do it and not just want to.
