What is the GreyT Telescope?
The Greyt Telescope kit lets you make a linear telescoping system with little to no
effort. Up to 40 inches per stage, up to 4 stages, and more than enough power from the
Falcon 500 motor. Lock your telescope in place with either the Ratchet & Pawl or the
WCP Friction Brake. Use it for fast and secure climbs, or any other ne-controlled linear
mechanisms.
Notable features:
• Congurable, up to 4 stages.
• Easy to assemble and maintain.
• All bearings, no sliders.
• Integrated gearbox and mounting.
• Built in option for Ratchet & Pawl or WCP Friction Brake.
• Works with .060” and .125” tubing.
• No CNC machining required.
• Proper hardstops.
• Improved design, removes common failure point of internal bolts.

Non-Flipped Hooks
In the image below are example hooks that could be used for hanging. The hooks are
made from 1/8” thick aluminum and are bolted together using 1”L spacers. These will
help keep the hooks from bending.
A 3/8” OD Shaft is installed through both hooks and the 1x1 Output Tube. In this
example, this acts as an anchor point for the string.

Flipped Hooks
The image below shows example hooks that could be used for either of the Flipped
congurations. The hooks are made from 1/8” thick aluminum and are bolted together
using 1”L spacers. These will help keep the hooks from bending.
A 3/8” OD Shaft is used as the anchor point for the string. Unlike the Non-Flipped Hooks,
the shaft is installed outside the tube for the Flipped congurations. The position for the
shaft is indicated in the image below.
Note: When designing your hook, make sure that the anchor point does not cause the
string to collide with any of the CF Springs�
