Re: Pistons not extending fast enough?
Team 1699 has a magnificent pneumatic catapult. we are using 1, 2in bore piston with a 10in throw. If you take the connection that retracts the piston off, you will have the speed of a small piston with a small bore, but the strength of the 2in bore and longer throw. We can shoot the ball very accurately and we have a good 10ft throw. In testing we were shooting more than twice this distance away. However, adjustments were made to accommodate our frame parameters.
