Re: Team 2980's Open Source FIRST BOT
I will be posting in more detail on the arm tonight. As you currently see the arm it is facing backwards on the robot, and will flip over the top of the tower to the front of the robot. The top section of the arm is mounted on slides and can extend another 18 inches. That puts the gripper at over 9'.

Now the one major problem we have run into is getting hardware into the tiny gap between the two arm rails. We've got it done now, but it was nowhere near ideal.
