I have to give you major props for this design. The ThunderChickens (217) tried a similar design back in 2004 and we had a heckuva time with cables binding inside our extendo-arm. It was really hard to troubleshoot too since all of the components were enclosed in the arm.
Our 2004 robot can be seen
