Great idea! I'm curious as to what those green tubes are being used for.
The reason we decided to try the 2009 robot was because we saw this video from Team 2386. Those shooter wheels seem to be directly driven by a CIM, so we decided to play with our 2009 robot, which also uses a direct driven CIM for a shooter wheel.

Anyway, the green tubes helped the conveyor get the orbit balls into the shooter.
