Re: Team 58 - The Riot Crew - Minibot Final Design
The wheels and motors are attached to arms that pivot at the base. The arms are held apart by pins 7" apart. When these are retracted by a pneumatic cyclinder the wheels close onto the tower and up we go. Team 166, The Chop Shop, has some very good videos on youtube. We used their deployer as a starting point for ours. Thanks Chop Shop!!!
