Team 3633: It's Not A Wheel Shooter

I don't have access to most of our footage right now so I slapped this video together for a deadline in broadcasting class.

The Ball Ejection Catapult is no generic wheel shooter. It's got the power to hit threes and finess to come down slowly. It can pick up three balls in the ball picker-upper and has 4 CIM kitbot drive. In addition, the bridge tipper is powered by two window motors and can hold the bridge down for itself to drive on and hold the bridge up for a robot on the other side to climb on. It can hold 180 lbs up on the bridge.
