Can a payload specialist throw during autonomous mode?

I saw this in the forum before but I couldnt find it in the rules. Where is this in the rules? Thanks!

There is nothing in the rules that prohibit the Payload Spec1alists from throwing Moon Rocks during Autonomous.

And please note, that even though it is spelled "Payload Spec1alists" with a 1 instead of an "I" they mean Payload Specialists.

Our team deduced that a moon rock can be used by the payload specialist the whole match and the deinition of the match is the 2 minute and 15 secind period... and therefore includes autonomous. It's nice to see reinforment though.

Remember that PS's are not allowed to handle moon rocks before the match begins (<G40A>).

<G40B> says that PS's can handle rocks after the start of the match. The start of the match is autonomous.
