About the jousting discipline
Change to the setup: To prevent the robot from tipping over onto the outer track, the height of the two inner boards on the home straight will be doubled to approx. 108 mm.
Question: Do the specified dimensions of the robot only apply at the start?
Answer: The specified dimensions of a maximum length of 30 cm and a minimum width of 16 cm in the direction of travel of the robot are not explicitly restricted to the start time or any other time. They apply to the entire duel ride.
