: : : does anyone know if it is legal to hook up a tether after the end of the match to collapse a robot, i would be using a seperate control system(last years), to collapse our robot in order to remove it from the field without hassle if we should end the match in the uprite position. thank you

: :
: : yes- as long as your robot is off the field, we had to do this a couple of times to reset our robot for the finals mathces and when we had matches right after each other.

: so we would have to carry it off the field ,say just over the rail then hook up, even if its 10 feet tall at the time we shut down

yes, like the other posts say, you need to alter your robot so you wont have this problem ours is 4 ft wide and possibly 6 ft long at the end of the match
