So I want a status report.

What I did have so far is now lying in many scattered pieces on my stupid
floor.  So I have nothing.

Iain: Hey Chris, I re-configured my delta robot  to expand from a 30 cm
cube to reach out and grab the flag.  BTW this design is from this Robot
maker. it is just DEATH  www.sc-100.com/super-robot.mpg

You know, that's a bad link.  :)

Try:

Watch what happens around 1:13.

Ohhhhhhhhh yeah.  Now that's what happens when you use a longstroke
hydraluic cylinder to shoot up five lay-out arms loaded with 40 happy people
into the air.

(FWIW the latest rumour is that Canada's Wonderland is geting the new
version of this, Jump2, it's taller (about 30 metres) and has better
capacity (48 per shot).  I rode the Jump in this video in 1999, it's a
frighteningly powerful ride, the noises it makes when the accumulator
releases and shoots up the cylinder is really wild...)

But talk about one gorgeous piece of equipment.
