Re: 701 Practicing Breaching Before CVR

So I see your intake arm moving slightly as you go over the various defenses. It almost looks like the arms' movement is helping you guys keep balanced and level, which contributes to why you guys look so smooth crossing the defenses. So here's my question: is the arms' movement due to just inertia and am easily backdriven motor, or do you have a gyro or some mechanism automatically controlling the arms to help with balance, or are your drivers doing this manually?
