How do you plan to pull it back, hold it, and release it?

Re: 2175 Shooter Teaser
 

The leading plan is to pull it back with a winch on a non back drivable gearbox and to release it with a dog gear shifting the gearbox into neutral.

Here's another look at our shooter now releasing with a pneumatic driven latch and winched back with our drive gearbox from last year. We are working to get some stronger springs and adjust the shot angle so our shot is a lot flatter http://i1.wp.com/www.fightingcalcula...size=360%2C202

Looks good!

It's got the power needed for a fairly long shot. Was that half court or longer? Also, this begs another question, how will you get the ball onto your shooter?

Re: 2175 Shooter Teaser
 

Our intake is designed to pull the ball over the bumper, from there, the ball rests in the basket/claws where it waits to be shot.
