While I think this is a great idea I don't understand what everyone is velcroing their controls to? Is the shelf somehow different from previous years? In the past it was just an aluminum shelf and to my knowledge velcro (hook/loop part) doesn't stick to aluminum very well. If you are meaning teams are actually sticking the sticky side of the hook or loop half to the aluminum is FIRST allowing this? Whatever they are doing per the combination of <R13> (the operator controls are part of the robot except for weight) and <G34> (robots may not grab, grasp, grapple, or attach to any arena structure.) I didn't think we are allowed to attach the controls to the shelf.
