: would it be safe to say:
: any part in the spi catalog is legal to use?
: any part in the spi catalog may be modified to use?
Yes and yes... except:
No pneumatics components from SPI (fittings) can be used.
Interestingly enough, FIRST has never said anything about not using the motor on p.310 for our robots. The main problem would be the fact that it runs on 110-130V. We would have to make a custom circuit to get it down to 12V, and making that circuit would be illegal.
If anyone can find a way to do this, then they have an extra motor.
...I wonder how much torque that flexible shaft on the same page can handle?

You can either spend lots of energy complaining about it and whining or you can try to figure out how to make a positive experience from the whole thing. - dlavery [more]
