Looks like a really good robot. The choo-choo crank on the extension spring might be unusual, but I think such a thing will be really precision and reliable too.

The 'pop-up' ball over the full front bumper is cool too.

We have a tape-measure hook placement system that doesn't work too--this might be a fairly common item in robot shops today.

Didn't see many crossings in your video.

Wonder how many teams considered Ballista for a name...I know I thought of it. But clearly you're an Onager.

Very cool robot.

Might have to work on humility....
