Is this actuator legal?
Our mentors came with a pair of actuators yesterday. But we are not sure if they are legal. Can you tell us if they are legal or not? Thank you

Re: Is this actuator legal?
Per rule R32, I'd say no.

Re: Is this actuator legal?
That's definitely no, because they use a motor that's not legal per R32. It's questionable whether it'd be legal if you modified it with your own motor, the GDC has been remarkably vague on that point in the past.
