891: Inspection Sheet not Consistent with Rules
The inspection checklist I am referring to is the one published here: https://www.roboticseducation.org/documents/2019/05/vrc-robot-inspection-checklist.pdf/
The date marked on the document is 8-17-21, however it is not consistent with several rule changes from before that date.
ALL Robot components are (or are IDENTICAL to) OFFICIAL VEX Products as sold on VEXrobotics.com
The "Identical to" clause has been removed from R6 since the initial release of the game manual, so it should not be on the inspection sheet.
unlimited 1/8th inch braided nylon rope
In the 6-29-21 game manual update, R8e was changed to allow rope no thicker than 1/4" of any material
Can the Inspection Checklist please be updated to reflect this season's rules? Thank you.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This will be corrected and re-uploaded shortly.
