Would you care to cite a source, or at least some reasoning on this? No offense but I am not going to design a mechanism around something someone with 4 posts on these boards told me. If I follow your logic of it "being the same" then say we have 6 of the same ones in our posession and we put those on the robot. Would be legal? I doubt it.

Can anyone give us a definite answer with a source of whether it is one or two allowed onboard? Thanks.
