Re: How far are people shooting?

We are going to go for the full court shot, probably at the larger target. Our Team developed a 3 wheel system using 2 wheels on the horizontal plane that are belted together and run direct drive off a single CIM and single wheel in the vertical plane that runs direct drive off another CIM. Top wheel is mounted slightly to left of center. Velocity is running over 30 fps and is flying flat and stable. Probably going to have to make some hefty guards for the fast spinning wheels in case of failure.
