Re: Arm goes down too fast?

two window motors driving a 22 or 24 tooth sprocket (forget which one) with chain to a 60 tooth sprocket with the arm bolted directly to the sprocket. on the back of the arm is the bungee cord running down the back. This test was from a few days ago so it still shows it slamming down into the frame (why the mentor is holding on to it, to keep it from doing that)

Both window motors are being drivin from victors in brake mode (Had jags, but they locked up)

Let me know if you need any more info
