Wow your robot is nearly identical to our haha. (1817, reveal coming)
How well does the bridge manipulator work? Does the window motor keep the arm rigid? Without much stress on it that is.

Notice the little servo next to the window motor? It locks down the bridge manipulator, alleviating the need for a strong anti-backdrive device or a high torque motor.

I know this might be a bit late, but what were the speeds (FPS) of the drive train for this robot?

[JB987]

IIRC, about 4 fps in low, 15? fps in high...until one of the drive train crew corrects me of course

Thanks You.
