Re: 233 telescoping arms how do they work?

Although I can't vouch for the pink team, on FRC-Designs team 75 has posted a CAD of their 2011 robot with a telescoping arm.

48 also seems to have a telescoping arm, but theirs uses a pneumatic cylinder instead of a lead screw for the telescoping motion.

I would still like to hear how 233 (and 2016) did their telescoping arms.
