Re: Regarding end game rules
One thing 648 did last year to lower our boom was to modify one of the wheel chair wheels to fit on the shaft of our boom motor. We used a FP to drive the arm, and extended the half inch shaft out the back of the stock gearbox. the wheel had a little hub which we slipped over the shaft, and turned the wheel to lower the boom. Our coach had the wheel on a lanyard and it was always in his posession. We also added a spring to push the wheel off once it was let go of so it was not forgotten on the robot.
