Re: Servo for Shooter?
You could always use an electric solenoid with some sort of lever attached. I know several teams are giving that a shot, and it can give you the flip you need without needing to go overboard with a window motor or adding all the extra weight and complexity of a pneumatics system ( assuming you don't already have pneumatic systems on your robot).
If you DO have pneumatics on your robot, then I would say go with a small pneumatic cylinder. can't beat it for speed/weight/force combination! Good luck!

This is the engineer's high privilege."
