Re: Glue shaft on back case of CIM motor

Someone on the team asked if we could use the single axis gyro?

My immediate response was NO.

But we can always tilt our shooter back to a home position, then use the gyro to tilt to a shoot position (to minimize drift concerns). We might try that when we have a lot of time to waste.

I love simple, and a simple bracket and a hose clamps seems better than glue. Easier to repair when it breaks.
