Re: Curved Shooter help

One thing we noticed with chain drive, is that chain tension is critical...if it's just a little too tight, the binding will really reduce rpm (and distance).

987 uses a 6" smooth tread kit wheel from a few years ago, their curved shooter is spectacular. It might have something to do with the quality of the rest of the robot, too.
