Answered: Legality of Twist Ties

[Kennenth]

Are twist ties legal for the sole purpose of bundling wires together on a robot and securing wiring to the structural frame of a robot, or would they fall under functional items not sold by vex and thus illegal?

No, this would not be legal. Twist ties used for this purpose would be functional, and are not part of the VEX Robotics Design System. Thus their use on a robot would not be legal.
