Re: pre-charged Pneumatics

The prohibition is not against solenoids, but against ELECTRIC SOLENOID ACTUATORS. Solenoids might just be a coiled wire carrying current, but adding the word "actuator" makes the intent clear to me. If powering your electromagnet results in a piece of the robot moving, it breaks the rule.
