It can go from bottum to scoring position in a little over 5 seconds

what is that sensor on the arm?
|
The device on the side of the arm is another motor used to operate a mostly hidden pulley system that draws the hook up and down. The hook grabs rings by pressing down on them, which causes them to flip up to vertical, and ring themselves around the hook. The pulley system can then either raise the hook to keep them solidly on the hook, or lower it, to drop them on the goal. The wings are used to hold the goal firmly in place, as well as increase our range for drawing rings into a position where they can be picked up.
