It was definitely a long design process for the arm to get it right, but it payed off. Our base driver only has to line up in the general area of the tower, and with the pressing of 2 buttons we are in the air.
We were having problems with the arm at Kettering, but after switching our steel cable out for sailboat rope (I'm not sure the technical name), we can hang in 1/3 of the time, and it won't get tangled on the arm!
