    Default R68 Robot Controller positioning

    <R68> "The Robot Controller must be positioned within the ROBOT so that its indicator lights can be seen during inspection and when standing three feet in front of the ROBOT while the ROBOT is in the STARTING CONFIGURATION at the beginning of a match. This will greatly facilitate analysis in case of problems."

    Question: Is the front of the Robot defined as which way the robot moves when the control stick is pushed forward, or just the positioning of the robot before autonomous mode?

    i.e. (The robot controller is positioned on the side of the robot when driving, but that side will face towards the middle rack before a match begins.)

    Please refer to the definition of STARTING CONFIGURATION provided in Section 8.2 of the manual. When the robot is in this configuration, the indicator lights must be visible when a person is standing three feet in front of the robot. "In front" means the person is standing between the robot and the Rack.
