Re: Intake Boulders with conveyor
Window motors would be fine, provided that you're not running them excessively long. They have a tendency to get incredibly warm and possibly burn out every now and then. Other things to consider are what kind of shooting mechanism it's feeding into, how you're going to limit your robot to a single Boulder, whether in a pinch you would want to be able to reverse your intake to score in the low goal... list of considerations could go on and on.
