Its really awesome to see that we are not the only team trying this kind of a shooting mechanism.

Our shooter was actually inspired by our 2010 robot's original kicker, which was a two stage beast. We did end up doing some research during our brainstorming, and we were in fact encouraged ourselves by the success of 95's 2008 design. Ours is currently 3 stages, and we are waiting on a few more cylinders to arrive in order to finalize it. I hope to see you guys continue to find success with yours as the build season progresses.
