Q54: Is moving a GEAR out of the way considered controlling the GEAR? A GEAR is sitting in front of and blocking a peg on the LIFT, for example, and it prevents your ROBOT from accessing the peg. Is moving that GEAR out of the way for the sole purpose of accessing the peg considered controlling the GEAR as described in G27?
Answer:
Yes, the definition of control does not take into account the intent. Your description of "intentionally moving a GEAR out of the way," is herding. If a ROBOT possesses a GEAR while herding another, G27 would be violated.
Keep in mind as well that intentionally placing GEARS in front of an opponent's LIFTS would violate G21.

So, if you need to push a gear away from the lift, make sure you are not carrying a gear when you do it.
This isn't an engineering fair and demonstration, it's FRC. Defense is part of the game. You can't expect a good FRC team to just sit there and get clobbered by a full-court shooter; they're going to engineer a solution to the problem. - Kevin Sevcik [more]
