Re: Extendable Arm/Hanger Subsystem? What works best?

For those who were wondering, like me, (heres my back of an envelope calculations)

140 Lb robot = 622N
climbing ~1m in 1 sec = 622 watts.
1 CIM = 337 watts
You could climb in 1 sec with 2 CIMs, but it would be close and your extension to get the bar in the first place would have to be nearly instant.
