But anyways, I was just wondering what that red ribbon on 1114's climber was for. I thought that it was used to pull the arm in, but I may be wrong. And if it is used to pull the arm back, how does that work?
Their arm is extended with springs (or surgical tubing I can't remember exactly how) and then it is pulled back with a ratchet strap (that's probably the "ribbon" you saw) that is driven off of two CIMs and two Mini-CIMs (not their drive train).
