Re: 1114's Red Ribbon?
I have confirmed they use constant force springs to extend it. I just dont understand how, none the less. Well this link will really help there are some great close ups if you were wondering. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3fxabc28nvvkcr8/A2tQie9tgK

When a mechanism is run with a winch and pulley + some springs, the "pull" motion is simple - winch winds rope in, mechanism comes with it. To extend, you just run the pulley in reverse. The springs take up the slack in the rope and extend the mechanism.

Outer attachment point for their hanger. Slide it out, hanger comes out.

That's quite elegant, do you know what they use to pivot the arm up and down?

They use a piston to move it up and down.

Re: 1114's Red Ribbon?
This is a little unrelated, but does anybody have a good, high quality video of 1114 climbing?

Go to about 1:20. It's also in 1080p, but it doesn't show the dump.

Re: 1114's Red Ribbon?
I think that could be the bottom connection point for their climber.

It looks to me that it's the shaft the climber is mounted to and pivots on.
