Re: FRC shifting gears

Has anyone ever attempted to use multiple servos to actuate a single shifter? Seems like it would be the logical thing to try given the option to use unlimited numbers of servos and their relative low weight (especially when considering the weight of adding an entire pneumatics system for a single function).

That said, that door lock actuator is intriguing as well. My team is planing on using pneumatics for actuating our ball shifters this year, but those actuators might be something worth trying out too.
