Re: When things start to come together

The lift with that motor will take six seconds to reach max height
also we are predicting about 10 pounds of spare weight to play with when all components are added

Re: When things start to come together

Have you tried lifting with the ball in it? it drasticly effects the way it behaves.

Re: When things start to come together

we dont have our ball carrier done or mounted yet, all we have there is our herder, and our ball knocker offer/hurdler. But as of right now we can't carry the ball, give use by the end of like friday we should. Once it's up I will be posting.

Re: When things start to come together

Also to save weight those aren't 8020 rails they're made by a different company
They are called 2020 bosch, a little more expensive but they save a lot of weight

Re: When things start to come together

we havn't tested it with the ball yet, because we dont have our ball lifter done yet. Close, but not there yet.
