Please correct me quoting a rule from the manual if I am incorrect.

R79 has your answer. There is no difference between the competition rules for the competition field or practice field in terms of the robot operation. You can modify your robot and test, but you cannot modify procedures in relation to the safety of operation.

Compressed air on the ROBOT must be provided by one and only one compressor. Compressor specifications may not exceed nominal 12VDC, 1.05 cfm flow rate.
