I can't guarantee these actuators will work well with CIMS. DART would have saved a lot of R&D, were they available.
OK, so I guess that we should just put the actuators aside for now and concentrate on other parts of the robot. And then when they become available again on AndyMark, we'll get back to them. Thanks!
