Re: Portcullis/Sally port

It would be beneficial to breach each and every one of the defenses. The drawbridge and sally port are trivial if you have two rolling robots, so we're not wasting skull work on fancy mechanisms. Five are drive train and geometry
issues; a lot of work went into our drive train design, and more to follow for build. We plan to multi-task our ball pickup to raise the portcullis and lower one plank of the Cheval de Frise.
