MRL180YTL2002 is an unknown quantity at this point
read rule 9.1. S10 in the Competion rules I believe states "The storage containers are the only projectiles that may be launched by a robot" therefore it comes down to whether the referees with disqualify you...like if a box gets launched into the crowd or causes damage to the field. The CIM motors if you looked last year a Woody's ball launchers has the power as do the Fisher Price and Bosuch Drill Motors have the power. This also conflicts with the drivetrain....we're already considered two penumatic clyinders for the drivetrains as well as the optical sensors, the CIM motors, and the drill motors.
