O.K. Now you too can say that you have seen Betsy, who is not unlike the Loch Ness Monster in being unable to be photgraphed well. The arm was crazy tall and reached a height of >12feet. The measurements are a little fuzzy but it got up there.

It was huge. I like it. But can your robot be used as a bed like ours could. unfold the ramps raise them up and you have a bed. At some of our late night meeting I felt like doing that.

It can't be used as a bed but when we need to see the area, why not strap a camera on timer and send it up? UP PERISCOPE!!

Re: pic: 2186 OverKill Arm
2007 arms have nothing on 2005 arms I think our 2005 elevator could reach about 14 feet, haha.

With an arm that size, it'd be cool if you could fold it up into a ramp at the end of the match. I'm still waiting to see that happen.

How high does that arm reach? I'm pretty sure that ours is around 12 to 14 feet.

Our '05 bot could reach about 14 feet, high enough to dunk a basketball (= great demonstration feat )

Re: pic: 2186 OverKill Arm
Our 2005 Elevator reached about 13 feet. It could have reached well over 16, but weight and practicality removed the 4th 4ft section.

Re: pic: 2186 OverKill Arm
The arm reaches about twelve feet, and funnily enough we are planning on changing the manipulator to dunk a b-ball at the next pep-rally. We should probably change the wheels though, the school won't look to kindly on casters on the hardwood floor.
