Where exactly did you see this? I was looking and I didn't see it anywhere...

Correct. I wasn't trying to claim it was, just trying to explain why V.M. Santore may have said why to keep them away from the cRIO.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand, magnets and their application in this game.

Could they be used to keep the robot attached to the pyramid after power is cut off?
The robot could extend some appendage with magents to stay secured.

How many/strong of a magnet would be needed to support 150lbs of robot?
