(For practice is another story--but then you just have to consider safety and getting the air to the robot.)

Compressed air on the ROBOT must be provided by one and only one compressor. Compressor specifications may not

Re: Pneumatics off board recharge packs

I'd also like to point out the 2015 R70:

“Stored” air pressure on the ROBOT must be no greater than 120 psi. No stored air pressure intended for the ROBOT may be
located off-board the ROBOT.
Emphasis mine. While you could have a "pack" (read: self contained module) with the compressor, gauges, hoses and such that comprises a legal, off-robot compressor system, you may NOT have any air storage on that off-robot system.
