Guidelines:

1. Robot Specifications

• Weight Limit: Maximum 8 kg.

• Note: Adapters and remote controllers do not count toward this weight.

• Size Limit: Must fit within a 75 cm x 75 cm x 75 cm box at all times.

• Power: Maximum voltage is 40V.

• 2. Mobility & Weapons

• Allowed Movement: Wheels, tracks, and walking mechanisms are permitted. Prohibited Movement: No jumping, hopping, or flying (drones/balloons). The robot must stay in contact with the ground.

• Allowed Weapons: Non-destructive weapons only. You may use flippers, wedges, and lifting devices.

• Prohibited Weapons: Any weapon not listed above (e.g., spinners or saws) is strictly banned.

3. Match Format

• Structure: 1 vs. 1 matches consisting of 3 rounds.

• Duration: Each round lasts up to 5 minutes.

• Winning a Round: Push the opponent out of the designated arena area to win the round.

• Winning the Match: The winner is decided based on total points/wins across the three rounds.

4. Repairs & Timeouts

• Standard Break: There is a 2-minute break between rounds for minor repairs.

• Technical Issues: If a robot malfunctions at the start, you have 2 minutes to fix it. Taking longer will result in a point deduction.

• Severe Damage: In cases of major damage during a match, a 5-minute repair interval may be granted.

5. Control Systems

• Wired: Allowed, but all wires must be bundled, insulated, and protected.

• Wireless: Allowed. To prevent interference, you must have a system capable of switching frequencies (at least 4 frequencies or dual control circuits).

• Note: Matches will not be replayed due to wireless interference.

6. Penalties & Disqualification

• Ring Out: If you push an opponent out, stop immediately. Pushing intentionally after they are out results in a warning (1st time) or disqualification (2nd time).

• Stalling: Avoiding combat (staying still or running away) results in a warning (1st time) or loss of the round (2nd time).

• Human Interference: Any team member entering the arena without permission causes an immediate round loss.

• Conduct: Abusive behaviour toward referees or staff leads to penalties or event-wide disqualification.
