Re: Need a quick answer about grabber....

As far as I know, the dreaded Rule 16 is the only one that applies

"<R16> Once the MATCH has started, the ROBOT may assume a PLAYING CONFIGURATION that exceeds the size dimensions specified in Rule <R11>. While in the PLAYING CONFIGURATION, the ROBOT may expand up to a maximum horizontal dimension of 80 inches (e.g. all parts of the ROBOT must fit within an imaginary 80-inch-diameter upright cylinder). There are no height limits for a ROBOT in its PLAYING CONFIGURATION at any time after the start of the MATCH. "

Re: Need a quick answer about grabber....

Your robot may not have any horizontal diagonal greater than 80" This means that from the tip of one of your grabbers to the rear most projection on your robot must not be great than 80". Other than that I can't think of an applicable rule.
