Re: DART Linear Actuators for the CIM Motor
That looks pretty awesome.
One question though... will the actuator backdrive? Using the arm in the video as an example, when you put the arm up, can you just turn off the motor off and the arm will stay in position, or do you need to power the motor to some amount to keep it there?
I think I know the answer, but want to make sure as it's not specified in the video or website
