Re: Ramps ideas

I am convinced that this problem can be overcome without motors.

The current plan is to use big pieces of laminated carbon-fiber and spring hinges. An actuator will unfold the first two "platforms," and the spring hinges will flip open the two "ramps."

As to the orientation I'll keep that a secret
