Re: Robot Lifting

In '04 several teams used a bent fiberglass rod with a hook on the end and cable dressed to the rod with velcro. Rod is held bent by a servo or small pneumatic cylinder pin-puller. When released it snaps upward as it straightens to the right hight to hook the bar. Winding the winch raises the robot.
