Do it! Although red beams may be getting a bit scarce - I just bought over
200...

What on Earth would you want with 200 red beams?  Are you up to something?
:)

Yep 8?)

Yeah thats gonna be tricky, but maybe just have a link from the base
attached with a turntable?

Not quite sure I follow...

OK yeah didnt explain that well at all. I'm thinking a platform in the base
goes up & down, it has a rotating link of some kind (turntable) on top that
pushes the activating mechanism up & down. Hmmm not sure if thats any better....

Maybe have power in the tower (hey that rhymes!) and a switch operated • from
below by vertical movement? You could possibly do the jump like that too,
but it may be a bit harder. Or even a RCX in the tower, controlled by • infra
red from another RCX (or remote control?) on the ground??

Puting the RCX on the upper part of the machine is not possible, that
wouldn't look good at all.

Yep, I thought you might be doing it a bit bigger.

That shows a temporary setup for testing the speed of the hub drive.

Yeah I notice you've already incorporated a clutch gear into the drive 8?)
wouldnt want to put too much sideways pressure on those arms as they're
going up & down...
