After tweaking some speeds and wheel placement, it'll regularly send frisbees the full length of the field, starting at about hip level and hitting the tarp behind the goals on a still-upward trajectory. Consistency suffers ever so slightly at that distance. I doubt that'll be the team's strategy during matches, but it's fun to see it working so well.
Whether it works that well on a driveable robot remains to be seen.

If it's not confidential, would you mind explaining why that wouldn't be your primary strategy during a match?
45 shots into the 3 point goal, even at 75% accuracy, is over 100 points by my calculations -- you could single handedly outscore three top level climbers, even without points you could make in autonomous or climbing.
It seems quite ideal, assuming your motors can hold up against 45 shots in 120 seconds.
