Ram

Yes, it is a ram. Original plans were for pneumatically folding arms, in the shape of a "T" form, but:

1. Time ran out
2. The thing weighs 128lbs, and there was no time to drill "FIRST" holes.

So, we just went with the arms that are mounted on the frame of the robot. We are all actually happy they are there, since it works VERY WELL. You just have to see this thing run, it's amazing. Its also got a 2 speed transmission.
