Re: A few quick teasers from FIRST Team Pronto [3070]

We have kept the 84 inch cylinder rule in mind, the final length of the arm is much larger in the video than it will be in final configuration. Also there will be programmed limits to ensure no breaking of the cylinder.

Claw will be powered via a pneumatic pulling a cable which will be routed up the arm similar to the way bike brakes are set up.
