We put a clutch on the motor shaft to our winch so it freewheeled untill we winched. To keep the cable under control we put a tape measure on so it would wind up the cable on the spool whenever there was slack.



The Gila Monsters impressed me, as did 716 (darn their tie died shirts). I'm still not so sure about the side-of-bar hanging robots, I think that was pushing the rules but thats just me.
