We are definitely reading the rule properly. If you re-watch the video I assure you that none of the robots break the volume.

After a comb-through closest situation I could find to a <R11> penalty would be in this picture

Here a robot swings its arm to launch a ball and the arm swings outside it's base area. However as you can see throughout the movie this robot has a square base meaning that it left extra room along its front to allow for this motion.

Anyone can watch Westcoast Choppers and see adults build things, but FIRST is great because it encourages kids to do the building and adults to do the watching.

GO DANVILLANS!!
