Go to Post The fact that although many of us disagree on specifics of how FIRST should conduct events, design a game, and facilitate as much fairness between teams as possible, in the end we still greatly enjoy each other's passion for FIRST and provide genuine respect for each other - Andy Baker [more]

Re: Tape

From "The Robot" documentation:

<R14> Electrical tape is the only adhesive-backed tape that may be used on the robot. It may only be used as an electrical insulator.

Re: Tape

I heard of a team (don't know the # of hand) that put Armer-all or Son-of-a-gun on thier Skyway pnuematic wheels to reduce friction but I wouldn't recommend it. These products are silicone based and could leave a residue on the carpet. Somehow I don't think FIRST would like that.
