Our team is currently using a catapult arm driven by two cim motors with a similar configuration to
Boom Done's catapult. Currently, we have a wire attached to the large gear at the top to trigger a limit switch that stops the throwing arm. However, the wire keeps bending out of shape. We are looking for something strong enough to trigger the switch but flexible enough to bend around the switch and the frame while returning to the same position. Do you guys have any ideas?
actual pics can be posted later if you need to see the current config.
