this weekend we're at the queen city regional. thanks to the amazing mechanical team we've just installed a new "ramp smacker" to lower the bridge after practice matches today. we're using a window motor and are hoping that a big gear ratio and some braces will give us the power and stability we need to push down the ramp. I'm putting on limit switches tomorrow morning and we should be fully functional!!! i've heard of all sorts of problems with the window motors, and we've had some of our own, but i'm thinking this could be a final solution.
