Re: pic: Is this corner considered protected?

There are many different views of this question. I thank all for there response. The one consistent thing that I have found is that even if it is legal to do it still may be turned down by the inspector. GDC will only refer you to the rules.

If we turn the corner/angle into a curve will it no longer becomes a problem.

Per GDC
3: A "C" configuration chassis for the ROBOT would be legal if, and only if, it satisfies all applicable Robot Rules.
4: A specific minimum radius threshold to determine the difference between corners and curves has not been, and will not be, defined. A "corner" will be determined to be a "corner" when upon inspection any reasonably astute observer perceives it to be a "corner" and not a curve.
