We didn't want to get too close during initial testing to the flattest angle we can shoot, because if we go too far, we'll shock load the choo choo. Our next stage of testing will hard mount the currently tied off restraint strap, which should flatten our angle. If it doesn't, we might have to lower our power slightly.
