    Default Mini-Bot Polycarbonate

    The list of approved materials for the minibot includes polycarbonate. Does that mean only raw stock (and if so, what specific thickness, etc), or is a part cast/molded from polycarbonate acceptable?

    Is the general intent that what is not acceptable for the 2010/2011 First Tech Challenge - Get Over It competition, is not acceptable for the mini-bot? Meaning, there are specific rules on raw material stocks that are not in the mini-bot rules, but are in the Tech rules.

    Default Mini-Bot Raw Materials

    The polycarbonate referenced in the Mini-bot acceptable materials - does that refer to raw material of a specific width, or is a polycarbonate cast part acceptable.

    In general, the 2010 First Tech Get Over Rules are much more specific on raw materials, like aluminum and PVC - is the spirit of the rules that what is not allowed in the 2011 Get Over It also not allowed in the mini-bot?

    Default Re: Mini-Bot Polycarbonate

    There are no restrictions on the size, shape or form of polycarbonate used in the construction of the MINIBOT. FTC rules do not apply to the FRC game.
