Good Robot and Video. I think your shooter has been the only 3 wheel shooter.

Off the top of my head, I know that 67, 2056, and 2809 have 3 wheel shooters. I'm sure they are quite common.

Impressive video and robot, love it.

our original inspiration for the three wheel shooter actually came from team 3929, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcHiw...8eXefcZvJchc5w

Sweet robot, it was a blast playing with you guys at North Star. You guys were great partners. Its always cool to see the iterations teams go through on their robots, and I wish you the best of luck at worlds!

Ours (2252) is a 3-wheel shooter.
620 (who we competed against at Pittsburgh) also had a 3-wheel shooter that propelled the top of the frisbee as opposed to the edge.
