Re: magnets on an frc robot

Are you asking about electromagnets? There are several responses from the GDC in the Q&A forum that cover this subject. Electromagnets may be used if they do not add power to your mechanical systems, i.e. move something. They can be used to hold something in place or to release something that was moved by another legal energy source. All electrical rules apply.
