Just as a general forum thing you should really watch out on your spelling errors, the VEX IQ game is “Rapid Relay” not “Raped Relay” as well as “i thot” should be “I thought”, I get that spelling errors happen but some things need to be kept in control. If you have questions on game rules please read the manual as well, as a team you should have read this already for game rules and i think it should be pretty clear in the manual. Hope this helps.

Uh it’s not showing it’s fixed for me…

Anyway @supersam2020 the answer is very clear in the game manual https://content.vexrobotics.com/docs/2024-2025/viqrc-rapid-relay/RapidRelay0903-2.0.pdf

If there are specific things that confuse you then please quote the rule/definition so we can help you

You don’t need a poll for these kinds of stuff… Just check the manual.

Number of Motors Max: 6
Number of Ports Max: 12

As noted above and in the manuals, you are allowed 6 motors, leaving 6 unused ports in the brain.

The big question is, what can you use those empty slots for? What extra sensors could you add to make those slots useful?
