The brakes in the Jags provide dynamic braking only, not static braking. Unless you have a high gear ratio gearbox that doesn't backdrive easily, the Jags won't hold it either.

What motor are you using, and what total gear ratio (gearbox plus any sprocket ratios), and what is the magnitude of the torque required to hold the arm?
