20 inch extensions?

Been sitting with the team and we were wondering about the extensions that can protrude from the robot up to 20 inches long. Can they be like that in a resting position before placing it on the field? Or it can't protrude at all UNTIL the match starts?

Re: 20 inch extensions?

In starting configuration all components must be within the frame perimeter. So no, once the robot is placed on the field nothing can extend beyond the frame until the match begins.

If your not wanting to power them you could make them rest up but once you move they fall out and latch in place.
