Yes, it is typically called a starting jig.    It must be completely made of
Legos and must fit inside base.  You can switch out different starting jigs.

Subject: [VADCFLL-L] Lego frame usage

 

Hi,

 

We are a rookie team, and need some help in understanding sections 12 and 23
in the challenge document. Apologize if this has already been asked before.

 

Based on the below, it appears that we are allowed to use objects made out
of lego set that came in to position the robot while it is in the base. Is
that right ? 

 

Are we allowed to change these objects between missions when the robot is in
the base (between missions) ? Sorry, if these are basic questions, but
trying to understand the details. Appreciate any info you could provide.

12 - STRATEGIC OBJECTS

. 

These are team-supplied objects which serve a mission-related purpose, but
never qualify as part of the robot. 

- Example 1: You may use a LEGO frame/"jig" to help aim your robot in Base.

23 - AIMING - You may use a frame/"jig" to aim the robot, but its use must
be completely in Base at all times, and you must let go of it prior to
starting/restarting.

Thanks

Suchitra
