What a great idea! Using a cam for lifting against the ground is a unique way of levitating robots.

None, our drivetrain simply pulls forward (yeah, it's that strong)
Quote:

<2 sec, it's just driving forward.
Quote:

12" (for both)
Quote:

One or two, doesn't matter.

Great mechanism! Just toss two of those onto your 2005 bot and you might have similar results to 2005. (or at least one can hope so)

Wow, I have been talking to my VEX team about using a cam design for grasping the bar. This will be a really great visual aid to show them. Great Idea guys.
