Go to Post Do you think Pizton's Lard would want to be a FIRST supplier and give every team some lard in the KoP? We could grease our gearboxes with it and every finals match could smell like bacon. - Ty Tremblay [more]

Re: Ramp alternatives?

A lift could be kept up after ower is turned off if it is a pneumatic piston on a dual action solenoid. These solenoids have three positions: extend (fwd = 1, rev = 0), middle(fwd = 0, rev = 0), which doesn't change the current state, and reverse(fwd = 0, rev = 1). Turning off the bot should only put the fwd and rev to zero, leaving an extended lift extended and judgable.
