GDC at it again!

Regarding Spike Relay Module

Are the Spike Relay Modules allowed to control the window motors?
Besides the air compressor what other motors may the Spike control?
Is there a maximum number of Spikes allowed on the robot?

Re: Regarding Spike Relay Module
1 - Yes.
2 - Under Rule <R55>, any motor other than the CIM motor and Fisher-Price motor may be controlled by either a relay module or a speed controller.
3 - While there is no rule that explicitly addresses this, by our calculations the maximum number of Spikes that can be contained within the NORMAL CONFIGURATION volume/weight constraints is 883. However, it is noted that the budget limitations of Rule <R22> would limit you to no more than 102 Spikes on a single ROBOT.
