Other than that we have a similar design.

How are you controlling the movement of the arms? Joystick? Pots? Switches?

Looks like it should be a fun year to walk thru the pits

Luck to all, you can sleep this coming weekend
The arms are on two joysticks, one for the elbow and one for the wrist. On the elbow joystick I can control the claw, and the base pneumatic cyclinder. And also the pneumatic cyclinder isn't the only device that pulls the robot off the ground, we have a scissor lift under the arm.
