Minibot (Tetrix) Questions

A few questions about the minibot, created with mostly tetrix parts...

1. The "mini-kit" we're using at the moment doesn't have much in terms of controllability. It seems that we have two motors, one on-off switch, a battery, and nothing else. How are teams controlling these things?

2. Even though plexiglass isn't polycarbonate, it's not allowed as a substitute, I assume

3. Are springs allowed on the minibot? The rules don't say anything about them, but we -are- allowed to use rubber bands and surgical tubing.

4. Are we allowed to use any other electronic components, such as resistors and relays?

Thanks for the help
