I was going through the checklist and found that our bot was in violation of R31 (my bad
) but was unsure of a legal solution.The specific part we are in violation of is: "Additionally, any gap between the backing material and the frame: A. must not be greater than ¼ in. (~6 mm) deep, or B. not more than 8 in. (~20 cm) wide" ![]() So it's greater than 8 inches, which means we have to move our support pieces inwards. The distance from the support to either end of the robot is fine, it is only the middle that is too wide. However, knowhere in the rules did I see a statement on how much the bumpers need to be supported by the frame. In particular, would the following solution be legal? ![]() As you can see, the minimum distance is now less than 8 inches, but the maximum distance: ![]() is still over 8 inches. Would this solution be legal during inspection or does the "minimum" distance have to be <8in? |
