Are 12v AutoLoc Linear Actuators legal?

[Richard Wallace]

Looking at the Autoloc website, the actuator appears to include an electric motor. Is the motor one of those that are permitted by 2013 FRC rules?

I will be quite honest, I have no idea on whether this motor is part of the 2013 FRC rules. I have included a link to the actual actuator itself: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hfm-lad8

Rule R32 states that only the motors and actuators listed in Table 4-1 are permitted. I would therefore conclude that this actuator would not be legal.

Acknowledged, thank you.
