The whole thing pictured weighs in at 90-110 lbs, somewhere in that range.

The CG is low enough that we can drive it around all crazy like and not flip (although I could make it do wheelies before we dropped the arm in).

if we get our wheels on another robot and keep driving we could go over. We can do the little stairs no problem, and if we can et up the 6 in step we have talked abour using the arm as a counterbalance to keep it from going over.

We can get that arm straight up in a few seconds. Maybe a bit longer to do the precision adjustments nescessary to get the hook on the bar.
