Duct tape

[FRC1001]

We did not find the usual prohibition on using tape on the robot. Are we allowed to use duct tape to attach elements of the robot this year?

[GDC]

There is no prohibition against the use of tape this year, as long as it is used in compliance with all other robot rules. Note that the unlimited use of tape is being permitted as an experiment. We are anxious to see if tapes can/will be used in an aesthetically and structurally appropriate manner, without having myriad robots "held together with duct tape and baling wire" appear at the competitions. Please consider the use of tape carefully, so that the return of tape restrictions will not be necessary.
