Re: FRC1899 Shooter Prototype
Sorry about the confusion. Point of clarification:
The surgical tubing was just for prototype's sake. We too were worried about the wear on anything with elasticity. Right now, we're considering adding a blade underneath the carriage, and using flywheels with encoders for energy.
My main concern for this design is the complexity. It's a good 3 or 4 stages, form intake, to lifting the ball, to depositing it in the ball cup on the carriage, to the mechanical trigger for the flywheels to make contact.
