Arm Designs - Chief Delphi

The part I like best is your method of transfering the torque via the balls. Very elegant. - Joe Johnson [more]

Re: Arm Designs

The teams ive been on have done both an elevator system and a stereotypical arm design. Both have worked to some extent. The standard arm design is easier to design and build, but i feel the elevator design is the easiest for the drivers to handle. The most important factor in the design is ultamately how much thought and detail goes into it.
