Re: pic: The Hammer

I believe a clutch could fix this issue, and mechanical stops. The stop would stop the kicker and the clutch would allow the motor to not stall once this point is reached.

1350 used solid neoprene blocks mounted on nylon blocks for their mechanicals stops and these worked well with our very violent kicker and was one of the few parts of the kicker that didn't self destruct ever.

At least that is how I would go about this.
