Re: Team 5030's Hockey Puck Shooter

This is really pretty awesome. Have you done any testing to see how fast the puck can go?

One minor thing about it is that the wheel won't be contacting the puck for long so you have to make sure it grips really well. This is why many shooters in FRC look like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o2ugqju9CY. That way you can get a lot of contact with the piece pretty easily (some teams even went 180 degrees for their shooters in 2013).

I wish our sponsors told us to make cool things.
