Rule 5.2.5 HELLLLLLLLLLLP

The Rule states basically that you cant use any motors from prievious yeas in addition to what was provided in the kit. Does that mean that we cant buy and use more drill motors. They only gave us 2.....

hmmmm.

That is correct. The kit only come with 2, and you can only use 2.

You CAN buy and use more for backup/spares/replacements. But you can only use two on the robot.

Ok that changes our plans for the engineers award....sigh

Rhs953 · #5 30-01-2004, 22:18

So what about other motors? like door motors

Cory · #6 30-01-2004, 22:19

Doesn't matter what motor it is. Whatever they gave you is all you can use.

You can only use the amount of motors (and more recently, servo's) provided in the kit.

Two in the kit, two on the bot. Three in the kit, thee on the bot. None in the kit, none on the bot.

Simple, yes?

Ok so next question...We've been trying to locate the dimension/data sheets for motor mounting point ect...for a bosh door and the window motor. Do you know where to get em?

Can we..........uh...make motors?

Cory · #9 30-01-2004, 22:27

No, you cannot make motors. Drawings of motors can be found at

Solace · #11 30-01-2004, 23:00

hmm.....are there any rules about fabricating motors out of what they give you in the electrical bag? that would be kinda cool. i will give a dollar to the first person who figures out how to do that.

[edit] wow, i should start actually reading the thread before posting. [/edit]

Cory · #12 30-01-2004, 23:06

I kinda thought the part where I said "No, you cannot make motors." was pretty clear. Incase it wasn't, you cant.

Can we get this thread closed?

Jeff Waegelin · #14 31-01-2004, 00:10

Okay. You CAN NOT MAKE MOTORS. The rules clearly prohibit this as stated above. We don't need to say this over and over again in different forms.
