Haha... we were going to do something similar... use our wide arm as a bang board to deflect balls. But then we figured out we can't do that. Since our arm is powered by the same motors as our kicker winch, we have to disengage the kicker to move the arm, and the kicker in its rest position is outside the frame perimeter (as seen in the picture). So we can only move the arm in the last 20 seconds of the match.
