Re: Shooter Problem
Our circular (90) degree shooter uses and AM pneumatic 7.5 inch wheel with a 32 tooth sprocket on it and a 25 tooth sprocket on the CIM. We have it set up so the wheel is hitting just above the widest diameter of the disk and just below the widest diameter of the tire with about 1/4 inch of compression and the tire at maybe 10psi. This ensures the disk does not ride up on the tire. This puppy will hit the top of a 10 foot door at 45 feet. up down variation is about 6 inches and side to side variation is almost nonexistent.
This is just with a plywood POC. You can read that as Proof of Concept or Piece of C&^%. Whatever. Still need to add a guide on the outer rail to keep the disk from riding up on that.
We have also tested a straight shooter bot so far it is not as consistent and much less powerful even with 2 wheel powered by separate CIMs.
Still plan on a little more testing here as I think it would be easier to incorporate to the robot.
