Re: linear actuator

The actuators themselves are allowed, it is the motors that are not.

If you were to adapt/mount a FIRST legal motor (from the kit or as described in the motor section of the rules) to the actuator shown it would be legal for use in competition

I don't know anything about the second one listed.
