You're right the highest point in the arc is above the top of the middle goal in this shot. This was our initial test shot based on a calculated angle and guesstimated force but we were surprised how close we got to the shot we wanted. We will be modifying the release angle tonight to lower the peak so we don't' have a dead zone. With the stop-strap it makes launch angle adjustment a pretty simple affair.
We also tested with a fully inflated and under inflated ball and were working out how much that variable was going to affect our shots. Our automatic stop when fully cocked wasn't dialed in yet so we need to repeat that process again now that we have a consistently cockable system done.
