Re: Vex Claw doesnt open all the way
If the motor / servo is removed will it actuate by hand smoothly?
There is a return spring in the claw that might have broken or come out of its seat. Or there is a broken tooth on the gear teeth on one or both of the pinch arms. Also check the drive gear from the motor shaft..
All of this leads to....
Take apart the claw to verify.
Good luck with it!
