Re: kicker mechanisms; pneumatics or motors???

We're testing bungee cords, which look like they'll do well and are experimenting with the window motor that seems to work well...but...anybody want to talk about how they're building some type of clutch so you don't backdrive the motor. We're talking about putting the winch on some pillow block bearings and then pulling the assembly off the window motor interface with pneumatics or another motor.
