Re: The Spring
I agree that it's concerning that droswell's pictures seem to indicate little bounce (though they're static images of a static load) while Justin's video of a spring with identical specs shows that if the gear doesn't get placed at least halfway into the spring there's a good chance it's coming off, and if you knock the spring as you're placing it it might come off too. I hope it's not just due to a wide tolerance in the manufacturing of the spring.
I think this would also make me weary of any strategy that is dependent on a totally passive gear manipulator - where the human player is lifting it out of the robot.
