Re: Disabled robots moving

I think G1 explicitly applies here:
Code:
...Uncontrolled motion that cannot be stopped by the DRIVE TEAM.
A disabled robot cannot be controlled by the drive team, in which case the continued motion of an actuator is uncontrollable and thus unsafe and illegal.

This seems counterintuitive to me. A fan should run while a robot is disabled (but still powered on); for it not to run, e.g. in the case of control by a power-regulating device like a motor controller, would have it turn on/off based on the output of said motor controller. That runs contrary to both R52 and general sense.
