Re: Sorry--clarification on the rules about motors?

Reflion,
Just to be sure, only parts (robot frame parts included) manufactured by your team after the 2009 kickoff can be used on the 2009 robot. You may not reuse parts of your 2008 robot. You can use the design and make new parts this year. I know it seems hard but as Russ has pointed out above, the CIM motors from last year can be used as functioning spares for 2009 but cannot be used on the original robot construction that you will ship in just a few weeks.
