Answered: Functional Nameplates?

[Trent_C]

I think this is the correct place to post this, but i was wondering if I could use the new vex nameplates to be a functional part of the robot?

i understand they are probably “decoration/ identification only,” but i would like to have the ability to quickly snap on and off parts from the robot by using the nameplates and their connectors. - Thanks:)

<R19a> explicitly disallows this.

@VEX Skyrise Game Manual

<R19a> The VEX Team Identification Number Plates are considered a non-functional decoration, and cannot be used as a functional part of the robot.

OK, thank you Karthik. I’ll make sure to check the game manual more thoroughly next time I have a question.
