WJ..... not sane at all.
but we all knew that anyway.
Q. how do you retract a 4 tonne pnematic flipper?
answered by builder of most powerful flipper in robotwars history
A. stand on it and jump up and down a bit. Kinda like Wile E Coyotee does in roadrunner.
Sooner or later he gets autodarwinated...
WJ,
As you know Ive now got a 100mm diameter full pressure ram similar to the one you had - thanks to Mario. What type of bungee(s) did you use to return the ram. I noticed on that second video clip that the ram had not fully gone home when the robot started moving. By the time that you got it to RW7 you had no problem at all with the return stroke. Any help would be appreciated.

a non flamible lube is not required.
Jeremy,
The bungees I used in series 7 worked perfectly, I got them from a watersports shop, I think they are used to tie boats to the shore and stuff. Dont let the bungees alone stop your flipper arm, its better to stop the stroke with a thether (i used rope, from the same shop) and retract it with the bungees, or you will statr stretching your bungees very fast.
Great Vid WJ couldnt help wanting gravity to throw u when u were jumpin on the ram dunno why
Ive got some videos of 48v tanto from last year breaking up the curb outside my old work no wonder Im out of work
