The official VEX V5 Robotics Competition Question & Answer system has closed for this season.
A robot can drag out another robot with a hook. Is it a violation to pull a robot without committing a holding violation (<G16>)? (e.g., entanglement violation in <G13>...)
Is a violation to use a grab and pull strategy or a hook to attack a robot defending a corner?
This is a Violation of rule <G13>, which includes "Strategies aimed solely at the destruction, damage, tipping over, or Entanglement of opposing Robots are not part of the ethos of the VEX V5 Robotics Competition and are not allowed."
From the definition of Entanglement, "A Robot is Entangled if it has grabbed, hooked, or attached to an opposing Robot or a Field Element."
