this is what happened to our arm (322) durring one of our earlier attempts to hang. this particular sprocket wasnt directly connected to the fishers, but to two window motors that control our wrist. we tried to hang with our wrist slightly bent, and because window motors lock in place, the sprocket gave into the weight of a 130 lbs bot trying to hang. gravity tried to straighten the wrist, and the motors tried to hold the wrist in place, and crunch... there goes our sproket. ...but yea, it was the fishers that lifted the robot up to begin with...

yep that pretty much what happened.
