Re: Linear Path Shooter vs. Circular Path Shooter?
You can see from some of our testing video (Thanks Kevin!) that we have tried a couple of different approaches. Granted, some of the tests aren't as valid because the mechanical setup's were a bit shoddy.
When you get to the 90 deg. circular shooter, you can notice some issues with the stability of the wall. We will be working on that tonight.
One really important take away from this testing is that increased RPM of the shooing wheel did not always translate to further distance. This is because the slipping that is occurring between the wheel and the Frisbee. Again, this is something we will be addressing tonight.
BTW, High Speed Video Capture (HSVC) is rapidly becoming one of our favorite new prototyping tools.
