Interesting rule calls from the Detroit District

everyone in FIRST has to do the cha cha slide at least once per season to get it out of their system. Now I can go back to doing it in the privacy of my own car (if you see a red Jeep in CT swerving back and forth don't worry, it's just me doing the slide...)! - KathieK [more]

The problem is that with 469's 4-bar, the two fixed pivots are parallel to the link with the minibot on it. With the Peacellier-Lipkin linkage, the two fixed pivots are perpendicular to the axis of motion (and the minibot would not always be parallel to the ground).
