Hi everyone! I’m working on a new roller system and was thinking of using linear slides on the rollers instead of having a hinge. Has anyone tried this and would it work? Also, any ideas on how to rubber band it?

I’ve heard it’s not very good and flip down rollers are much better.
We are using sliders on our arms for flipout, and they break off very easily. We considered adding more sliders (to the other side) to make it impossible to break off, but that increases the weight by a lot.
I’ve never seen other bots do this, so is it effective at all? If not sliders, what are some other options for flipout; we previously had a horizontal flipout, but the amount of compression we needed would literally bend the metal.
