Re: Shooting issues
 

Describe the shooter please. We can't help otherwise

Re: Shooting issues
 

Details needed. Linear or curved shooter? What motors are you currently using? What wheels and what size? Are you using any gearboxes?

Re: Shooting issues
 

This moters connected and btw we are rookies soo

Re: Shooting issues
 

My guess is that you aren't getting enough torque to make the speed useful or way too much compression. Have you tried 1:1 with the cims?

Other pic is here

Yeah we did try

Re: Shooting issues
 

Are the discs hitting the bolts you have holding the shooter down? Any idea on what your compression is?

Re: Shooting issues
 

It looks like the issue is you are using gear reduction to slow the motor output down.
Many teams are directly driving those wheels with the motor, no gear in between. You will get lots of torque, but speed it what you need.

Re: Shooting issues
 

I don't think is hitting the bolts and idk about that......:confused:

Re: Shooting issues
 

Most of the linear shooters that people are using are using an overdrive setup for their gears. It appears from your picture that you have a small gear on the motor and larger gear on the wheel which will reduce the motor output rpm. Maybe try putting a larger gear on the motor?

Can u give us an idea how u connect those directly to motor bec we try didn't work so we have to use gears.....

Re: Shooting issues
 

Also you may need something with some grip to it on the opposite wall from the wheels. This will allow the frisbee to spin more. More spin = more stable flight
