Does the shooter autonomously aim or is it just a set position?

Neat design ! Simple and effective.

I see that you have a practice robot hanging on the side, do you plan to go for 20 or 30 point hang ?

How do you feed frisbees from the feeding station ?

We have an encoder on one of the toughboxes that drive the worm screws that we use to set the angle.

We have a few ideas for a 20 point hang but nothing has been tested yet.

Frisbee feeding is accomplished by running the shooter wheel in reverse at a slow speed and pushing the frisbee through the middle slot.

This is great and scary at the same time :yikes: Have you guys began testing the floor pickup in auton to go for more that 18. 1208 is making St. Louis look even harder every week. :D

Looks great!! Any concern about the shooter being outside the bumper zone and getting heavy abuse and damage from collisions? Is it retracted while not it protected zones?

We're working on floor pickup right now, but there won't be enough time to go for another shot.
