Re: Scissor lift?

our team hasn't built one that i know of, but looking at schematics and pictures of scissor lifts, it might be a complex device to build. you would most likely need a lot of pneumatic parts, which can be large and heavy. if you can afford to leave that much space and add that much weight to your robot, then a scissor lift could work. you would have to make sure it is stable enough and that it can operate smoothly.
