What Lift to use

VEX V5 General Discussion General Forum

My team is unsure about what lift to use, we really do not have the resources for a scissor lift, so we really do not know what to do. We have a 15x15 x-drive. Any help?

I’d suggest to use a reverse double 6 bar - it gets you high quickly and lifts straight up.

Or a reverse triple 4 bar, or an elevator lift. they all are semicompact, and can go really high.

I would say try the Double reverse four bar instead of a double reverse six bar. The double reverse six bar has more pivoting joints and there you will have more slack and energy transfer loss. The double reverse six bar does get higher but the four bar style will get you high enough for this game

Thanks all! my team will be testing some of these lifts.
