Here is the link for Intake and Shooter video, roughly 19 feet away.

The shooter looks great as a prototype and the range looks great. I am looking forward to seeing it on a chassis and shoot from the winch. Great range! The ball does not have too much spin either. Make sure you are thinking about a gripping mechanism around the arm's cradle - that wood has a higher coefficient of friction and is gripping the ball more than the aluminum will. Think through some sticky tape or wrapping. Part of your success is the ball's spin or lack-there-of. Great job so far!
