Go to Post If we can transform our culture to the point where girls swoon over guys as they pull their dremel off their belt and carve some speed holes in a smooth fluid motion, I think FIRST is half way to its goal. When we get the guys to swoon over the girls for their hot moves on the 5-axis, we have won. - EricVanWyk [more]

Re: Window Motor will not lift ball anymore. It did, but it wont any more.

A window motor is just not going to get the job done here. You are experiencing what happens when you try direct drive. But if you gear it down it will be too slow to shoot the ball.

If you look at the motor data sheet for this year you will find that the window motor is comparatively low power.

You need to find a different basic way to operate your arm using a more powerful motor.
