Re: what motor did you use(arm)

We didn't use a window motor this year. We CAD'd up a plastic insert for the FP motor/transmission that accepted the triangular lead screw nut. It was quite a contraption once the entire mechanism was done using some iGus linear slides inside of a 4 inch PVC tube all connected to ansi 35 roller chain and and IFI mechanism sprocket on the arm.
