Encouraging anyway, I'll do some testing this weekend (and probably post a picture of the (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

| My model (link below) uses elevators with a double rack and double drive axles (four z8 pinions). I have tested it with a payload of 36lbs (more than enough for a complete scale-size Saturn V). By my calculations, thats 40N per elevator. The rubber (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)
