RoboChairI don't think that this conforms to the rules laid out for team standards.

Bob SteeleI really like your design.... very creative and plenty strong.
I do think that there may be a couple of issues with it.
If you win a ribbon how will you attach it?
The ribbons have grommets that will fit over 1/2" material. I believe the horizontal piece is supposed to reserve 1.5 inches at the end for them. If your frame comes apart I suppose you could put them in between the pipe frame and the standard. I do think the intention of the rule is that they would be able to fly on the outside.
I am not sure how the rules interpret the "standard"
I think there is a horizontal piece not to exceed 15" and a vertical piece not to exceed 32".
I would imagine that everything else is the standard itself
The rule states: The Standard substrate must be made of cloth or other flexible material.
The pipe frame you have is not cloth or other flexible material.
I am not trying to criticize I just think you should check and see. It would be a shame to get to an event and find out that your really cool standard could not be flown.
Again... very cool job.. I would not have thought to do a pipe frame like that
