telescoping arm & ten second rule

If my team had a telescoping arm (to score ten points by being a in a zone from across the field) and this arm was powered by a spring (meaning not powered by battery).

Say this arm took 5 seconds to extend, and we released it at 1:59, would the arm moving after the two minutes, and finally reaching into the home zone be legal, or must all parts of the robot stop immediatly after the 2 minutes are up.

I know FIRST gives 10 seconds to allow things to come to rest, but would intentionally moving (unpowerd by battery) after the two minutes be legal??

Thanks,

Ben Mitchell
