Re: Shooting from opposite side of the field

How practical does this look, what do you think of it?

For the most part the ball enter the back of the robot is picked up by a belt which uses force against plastic/rollers to move it upward and to the launcher. it gets to the launching part (motor sets B & C). Then Set B gets it moving to a good speed so that when it hits Set C, it is propelled even faster.

I tried to mark the ball path with a consistant line and marking it with arrows to get an idea of speed.
What you think? (sorry for the crude drawing, and not being to scale...)
