Gear Lifting

Hi, me and my team were discussing about how to get the gear into the spring and lift it. In the rules it does not specify it but, can the gear be in contact with the robot while it is being lifted? Or does the gear just have to be in contact with the spring in order to be lifted?

Thanks

Gear can still be on robot and pilot can pull it up, this has been answered in Q&A.

Just make sure that you robot does not obstruct the pull.

Literally Question 1 of the Q&A

And like one of the first posts on chiefdelphi after the kickoff… and like 30 more posts about the same question after that… also, bag day is in 2 days BTW.

Welcome to Chief Delphi, and thanks for asking a good question. You will find that by using the “search” feature, a lot of folks might have already asked (and answered) things you are worried about. Best of luck to you and your team this year!
