That was the idea, yes.
When the gears cames to the end of the Gear Rack, there should be enough
space for the gears to flip around. My idea was that the arm was not
connected to anything else than the axel from the motor. Then it will flip
around because of the motor still running and pressing this arm down towards
the rack.
With a switch on top of this arm you can monitor when the arm has released
and stop the engine if you has an RCX controlling this....
