Re: Linear Actuators

In 2013 we were a tower shooter. We used a "linear actuator" to move our shooter up and down for fin movements. We got our off of a car seat. (They are used to move seats forward and backwards in cars) We took the old motor off and then made a plastic converter on the lathe to the versa planetary gearbox we were using with a bag cim. Overall it took only a few hours to fully assemble.
