Re: Release of the 2005 Technokat's "Sky Hook"

Just to wonder... How bad is your CG? The kit gearboxes are heavy enough alone, but 2?? and an Atwood to power? That's probably at least 5 pounds at what looks like 4.5 feet. I sure hope you guys have anti-tipping measures.


Potential CG issues aside, great looking robot!
