Re: Legality of Team 190's Mechanism?

Just an FYI...The judicial system in the U.S. has no constitutional authority to make laws/declare things legal or illegal, just unconstitutional. Yet they do declare things illegal/interpret things into the Constitution.

The Q&A is the "judicial system" of FIRST.

The GDC also makes the rules. Sometimes it's hard to tell if they are interpreting a rule, expanding an old rule, or making a new rule.

Re: Legality of Team 190's Mechanism?

It's teams like team 190 that keep FIRST alive with ingenuity. If they could make their arm spin faster, their robot would be awesome, not that it isn't already.

Power to clever mechniasms opposed to professional and brainless engineering on CNC mills. Even if their robot breaks the rules, refs should make an exception as they have done countless times in ridiculous situations.
