Re: "Traditional" shooter help

What wheels (size, material) did you use ? 8 in gray AM traction wheels for shooting. the front intake feeds the ball into the wheels


How are you powering it (motor(s), direct or geared etc) and about what is the no-load RPM ? naked mini cim coupled to a 5/8 alu. shaft and a encoder set to 3000 rpm for consistency



About how much compression on the ball does your shooter apply as it pulls the ball through ? not to much?? we are set up to shoot from just off the ramp by the castle

make sure the shooter has good barring support and it is well balanced, because at high rpm things can get kinda wild. also having a good centering feeding device is important
