Motor limits?

111208 · #1 27-01-2010, 16:25

I know that a max of 5 CIM motors are permitted, but is there a limit on how many regular motors that can be used. Also, do they count the compressor for the pneumatics as a motor?
Thanks.

You are only allowed the motors in the KOP up to 5 CIMS and 1 compressor. I would reread the rules as this is all in there.

<R52> and <R53> specify the restrictions on motors used on the robot. If it came in the 2010 Kit of Parts, you can definitely use it. If it didn't come in the KOP you can only use it if it is an exception listed in <R52> Parts B-E.

Thanks guys. I had read that rule without fully understanding it. Thanks for cleaning it up.
