If using the van door motors to hang...

: ... I have a word or two of caution for teams trying to use such methods as a means of not falling when their robot is hanging:

Just a quick tip if anybody is using the van door motors to hang(like we are)...if you're looking for an easy way to keep from sinking when you stop lifting yourself up, just set the speed controllers to turn the electronic braking on(the jumper on the left two pins), and you'll hang there forever...we've got a 130lb machine, and we hung there for a long time...as long as you don't unplug the battery, that is... =)
