Re: arm design

We have a single jointed arm with a second joint controlled by a four errr... three link. The whole thing is mounted on a stationary tower and folds up nicely inside it. On the end of the arm we have a pneumatic gripper somewhat akin to a stuffed teddybear grabber from hell. The arm will probably be powered by two fp motors if anyone ever takes the initiative to design a gearbox for them.
