Re: Question about Climbing the Tower

In 2010 (Breakaway), we lifted our robot using a single CIM motor, geared through a DeWalt transmission and attached to a boat winch. http://www.thebluealliance.com/match/2010mo_qm64

In 2013 (Ultimate Ascent), we lifted up all 3 levels using 2 mini-CIM's geared through a Toughbox Mini, and attached to a homemade winch. http://www.thebluealliance.com/match/2013mndu_qm77

Let me know if you want any more details about our mechanisms!
