They are supposed to be perpendicular, but one of the motors is indeed a little bit out of alignment. We will be replacing the plywood today since it got pretty chewed up while things were getting moved around yesterday. Today will be dedicated to cleaning up the design, adding the bucket frisbee hopper, and adding a pneumatic "pusher" that will feed the frisbees in to the wheels unless there is a way we can get it to just gravity feed.
Thank you (and everyone) for your patience and help. The team went from totally discouraged and not wanting to even go to regionals for fear that we would be the lamest team there again, to having a bit of hope that we can make a better showing than last year.
We did place 47th out of 50 last year, but that was primarily due to good alliances. We also received the Rookie Inspiration Award last year so the team wanted to show that we were taking that to heart and making progress.
