Well this sucks, I just got a response from FIRST
Reply: When we examined the cylinders that we had in stock, we thought that the end pins were more than lightly pressed into the cylinder bases. We envisioned teams clamping the cylinders in vises and driving the pins out. Because we had the "no-modification rule", and did not want teams criticizing us for another rule change, mid stream, we stuck to it and issued the response quoted above. Rule M16 did not specifically state that you could not remove the pin. The Forum posting by FIRST clarified the "no modification of pneumatic components" statement in M17 by explicitly mentioning the pin. By removing the pin, you have modified the air cylinder. 36F Looks like I have to modify my mount to put the pin back in, shouldn't be that bad I guess just a waste of my time ![]() |
