==== Weight ====
* 30lbs in a fight ready condition. All robots will be weighed prior to their first match.
* Weight of cameras or video-recording equipment does not count towards the weight limit.
* There is a 12lb weight bonus for robots that [[Non-wheeled bots|do not use wheels or tracks for motion]]
** For a multibot, only the heaviest bot is required not to have wheels to qualify for this weight bonus.
* There is a 8lb bonus for competitors made up for more than 1 robot.
** The robot will be considered disabled when 51% or more of the total weight of the bot is no longer moving.
** '''The heaviest robot in any multi-bot setup must have an [[active weapon]]'''
** The maximum weight of any one bot is 110% the weight class limit (for 30lb this is 33lbs.)
*** If that bot happened to not use wheels or tracks for motion its max weight would be 42lbs, leaving 8lbs for other multibots.
* The weight bonuses may be combined for a maximum total weight of 50lbs (assuming a wheel-less multibot).
==== Size ====
* Robots must be able to fit in a 36"x36"x36" Box in a fight ready condition. The robots may expand or contract during the match.[[File:Arena Hinges.jpg|alt=Metal hot glue|thumb|If it's worth doing. It's worth over doing]]
