Pneumatics and motors. Also, Kiwi.

I know you are only allowed a maximum of 12 motors, but if you use pneumatics, does that amount go down? Or can you do 12 motors plus pneumatics?

Another question: Are you allowed to attatch non-functional objects to your robot, like decorations? I asked during a competition if we were allowed to tape a kwi to our robot, but they said that they weren’t sure.

Finally, can coaches do anything if your robot tips over? During the same competition, our robot was tipped over near the fence, by an enemy bot (probably not intentional).

You would have to make the robot right itself.
