I like and I wonder what the lateral stability is?
Thanks for posting the video:cool:

I would love to find an opportunity for you and your fellow teams from Mexico to compete in an off-season event here in Texas!

I like it. How did you solve the lateral stability problem that you encounter with scissor lifts.

Y por curiosidad, que escuela en la Ciudad de Mexico?

Looks good. Be sure to test what happens once you cut power to the motors, i.e. does it fall right back down? FTC scores happen after motion stops, subject to the rules. Double check so you're not disappointed. A simple passive locking lever would work.

We fixed the lateral stability problem with the tetrix structures, and we are from Centro Escolar Cedros in Mexico City, thanks for commenting!

Due to the gear box we made, we dont have this problem, thanks for your help and for commenting!!
