Very nice.

Mind if I ask how the shooter feeder works?

Also does it hang?

Kiet/Jon and Crew,

Great Job on the robot, this will be one of the top robots in California this year. Digging the powdercoat and innovative intake/shooter!

Yes, it does hang, just wasn't featured during the photoshoot and SVT.

It'll be a part of our 30 lb allowance.

As for the shooter feeder, it's a drum that has a surface speed of ~150" per second and a roller that assists the feeding process, which is placed on top of the frisbee. This allows us to "rapid fire" frisbees.

That's awesome. My next question, what material is on the drum? We thought of something like this but never found a material sticky enough to pull a disc out of the stack while angled.

More gorgeous robots coming from California...
Love the powder-coat, the wheels, and especially the crisp electronics!
Keep on doing what you're doing because you make the west coast shine!

Yet another "why didn't we think of that?" and "wow, we really got this all wrong" moments. Very elegant.

Very beautiful robot, I can't wait to watch it compete; really wish I could see this in person. Love the custom painted performance wheels :D


Also, any particular reason there are no fans on the Talons-as it seems like you are using all Talons.
