MiniBot - Can I use a spring?

The flux capacitor should have been allowed under the flowchart as long as it met the single component maximum cost. I did check with Digikey and they no longer carry the line. - Al Skierkiewicz [more]

Re: MiniBot - Can I use a spring?

Springs are not one of the 27 permitted materials listed in <R92> so you cant use them. Rubber bands and surgical tubing are on the permitted list so they can be use them instead of springs. I would suggest monitoring the Q&A and team updates for clarifications on how these materials can be used by a Hostbot and a Minibot since there are many open questions right now.
