Re: Small robots in 2008

Isn't there a rule saying that the longest dimension of the robot needs to be vertical when starting the game? Let me see...

Quote:

<G18> ROBOT Orientation - ROBOTS must start the MATCH with their long (maximum) dimension in a vertical orientation. After the start of the MATCH, ROBOTS may change their orientation such that the long dimension is either vertical or horizontal. Refer to Rule <R08> and Rule <R17> to determine how this affects the use of STANDARD BUMPERS and FLAGS.

So I guess that means you can't have a small, flat robot this year... Unless the flags add to that maximum dimension.
