1370 did some testing last night. the 1-1/2" cylinder (1.7 factor) moved too slowly to launch and the 9/16" cylinder (0.2 factor) didn't have enough thrust. The students are interested in splitting the difference and going for a 1-1/16" bore cylinder (0.9 factor), but we would have to get one.
Right now, we're putting air punches on a back burner pending the outcomes of other ideas.
