Re: Throwing Problems/Motors

Our team also had our catapult shooter powered by motors and it seemed to be powerful enough, but with the ball it didn't have enough power to get it high or far enough. The team decided to change the entire design to pneumatics (with one week left ) but got everything on and working in 3 days, and it works great , better than the motors.
