Re: pic: My Prom Date - MILDREAD 4
It is like a forklift. The bottom half of the arm is on a slider where the square aluminum in the centre works on a pulley to raise it. (The piston in the back lowers the square to raise the arm). The second half of the arm is raised by another piston that is mounted to the slider giving us a total of almost 9 and a half feet of air. We can only hold one tetra at a time and pick it up as the top half of the arm raises. Then we drive up to the goal, raise the first half and then lower the second half to drop the tetra on to the goal.
In the back we have wings or blockers that will come down to increase our area to block other robots from stacking.
She's my prom date .. and shes beautiful ..
