Re: Scaling

Any extension past the robot's FRAME PERIMETER must not excced 15", and the tricky thing is that it's measured relative to the robot's "normal" configuration, sitting on the ARENA carpet. So if your thingy that pulls up the robot extends more than 15" past the FRAME PERIMETER, then it's illegal.

See the updated rule G18 for some examples.

Re: Scaling

You can extend longer during endgame right?

Re: Scaling

You can extend taller, but not further to the sides. It's a difficult challenge! It's like they really want us to work for those extra ten points.

You can extend above the HEIGHT limit. Still can't extend more than 15" past the frame perimeter though.

Violation: FOUL. If strategic, offending ROBOT will be DISABLED.
