Pretty Much.
On the note of the removal of gears the rule book states
"The number of pre-populated GEARS may change for District Championships or the FIRST Championship.
ROTOR 1 ROTOR 2 ROTOR 3 ROTOR 4
Pre-populated GEARS 0 0 1 2
PILOT placed GEARS 1 2 4 6
One GEAR, the Reserve GEAR, is staged on the AIRSHIP at the start of the MATCH at the base of the STEAM TANK, as shown in Figure 3-12."
They actually can removal some of the pre-populated gears in the
FIRST Championship, but it doesn't mention removing the free gear. The free gear just acts as a place anywhere pre-populated gear
.
Advances in STEM are meant to benefit everyone, so even the most basic-level of understanding deserves to be validated and encouraged. - moamomen [more]
