Re: Mounting an arm potentiometer

The little arm has a clamp screw, and a slot that you can't see that lets it compress and clamp onto the pot shaft. Very little side load, notice the slot where the nylon screw contacts the little arm. Worked fine all season, and we took it off and used it on a different type of prototype robot this year.
