Re: Minibot - aluminium

This was discussed over lunch today, and we came to the same conclusion, that we can use aluminum parts as long as we use items with no pre-drilled holes. But I have another concern (it's probably an obvious answer, but I'm going to ask to be absolutely sure). Can we modify the minibot KoP items? Like cutting the c-channel for example. I would guess we are allowed to considerring the fact that two of the c-channel sections are longer than 12".

Re: Minibot - aluminium

You are indeed allowed to alter, cut, bend any legal metal or plastic materials you are using on the minibot...Tetrix items are legal, therefore ok to modify. Just don't modify the motor or battery.
