To my knowledge, this violates two rules- Rule 4, Equipment- you are only allowed a maxium of 1 brick to the competition area, and the second (I don't know that number) which says you can not have any remote controls.  The robot must be autonomous.  So no, under the stated rules your team will have to figure out another idea.

I went to last years competition and participated for the first time.  This year the team has designed one robot using the NXT Mindstorm Kit and another NXT brick as a remote control.  Is this allowed during the competion or do they have to program the NXT for each individual mission.
