Prototyping New Lift Systems - "Sword"

Task: Introduce new capability to "Sword" for High Goal scoring and de-scoring while still being capable of moving underneath trough.

Action: Construct 8-bar Lift

Notes:
-Initial testing shown 1:3 ratio extremely fast, but could not lift to desired height (32+")
-Changed to 1:5 ratio and moved pivot point to top of tower, achieved height, however, concerned with how to counterweight with elastic bands

Future Work:
-Move 2 upper aluminum channels toward rear of robot to reduce compressed size
-Mount platform
