<R52> prohibits motors other than those in the kit and those specified in <R51>D. The bolded text from <R51> specifies the 2 1/2" CIMs and part numbers, so any CIMs you use other than the two provided in the kit must be the same 2 1/2" size/design motor.

Re: CIM Legality

Rule 51 D says 4 and no more 2 1/2" CIM motors. What about Cims of other sizes?
Curious because it doesn't say '4 CIM motors total- of any size'.

Re: CIM Legality

The rule boils down to this: you may use a grand total of 4 Cim motors identical to the ones in the kit. You may not use the larger 3" Cims that have been provided in previous years.

Rule <R52> says you can't use any other size of CIM, since they are different from those provided in the KOP. And the ones permitted by <R51> are the 2-1/2" size.


Quote:
<R52> Items specifically PROHIBITED from use on the ROBOT include:
A. Electric motors and/or servos different from, or in addition to, those in the Kit Of Parts, with the exception of those specifically permitted by Rule <R51>.
