[ALARM Robotics]

I think we have the CG issue under control because we are going to attach the forklift to a pivot point so that it can tilt back, getting the weight more centered on the robot. Although, I am very concerned about the lever force pulling the slides apart and the added friction. We could definitely do more stages but thought it might add too much weight/complexity. Ideally, we had wanted to do an embedded U-channel type design but don't see how you could run cables between the stages if you go with drawer slides? Also, the lift will be powered down as well as up.
