Re: 476 Utube video

That's a unique lifting method - I like it, although I would really want to practice a few times with spotters before I tried it in a match. We'll see you at Lone Star...

Re: 476 Utube video

Thanks guys - Arm has taken several weeks and more prototypes than we can count.
Lifting mechanisn is actually pretty simple.
It will be good to see are friends in Ks Tx and Ga. this season.
Anxious to see what the rest of the teams have done.
We actually had to lose our forearm due to the stinking 72" rule.
But we gained 5.5 pounds so it was a good thing.

Re: 476 Utube video

wow, that's a really daring lift mechanism, hax0r!!!
That arm control of yours is just...beyond awesomely sweet. You should write a white paper on the assembly and programming of it.

Re: 476 Utube video

Lifting mechanism is tweaked and working much better now. We use gas springs to lift so we can do a lift without power. Our arm controller is still in development. We need a little more time to tweak it.
We will try to post some more video of the improved lift and what we are using for our arm control.
