our team (1529) working on the Robot the red/yellow/green thing in the middle is called the lollipop because the inventor file looks like a lollipop. So we used the theme allover the robot and painted it various different colors.

TaylorI think we'll be the only robot at the Boilermaker Regional with spinning rims. We'll have a display lolly in the pits, too.

I would guess that the arm flops down so that both tabs are in the center of a tube. Then the green and yellow disks spin opposite one another until the tabs are 180* apart, and the tabs push out on the tube from the inside. To release on a spider leg, the arm comes back up and the disks spin back to their starting positions.
