2021: RSC4: 3 loaders in Autonomous Coding Skills?


John Holbrook (Event Partner)

<RSC4>:

Note: In both Driving Skills Matches and Autonomous Coding Skills Matches, any Driver who is not currently operating the Robot may also serve as a Loader (i.e., a Team may have two Loaders at any given time).

What does it mean to be "operating the robot" during an Autonomous Coding Skills match? Assuming the robot is not being actively repositioned, would it be acceptable for all 3 drive team members to serve as Loaders during an Autonomous Coding Skills match?

Answered by committee

Because the game manual does not place limits on the number of Drive Team Members who may serve as Loaders in a Robot Skills Match, it is legal for all 3 to serve as Loaders during an Autonomous Coding Skills Match.
