Re: Hardest Shooting Robots

Our robot shoots pretty fast.
It's 4 775pro's with a roughly 2.5:1 reduction and 4" stealth wheels with the second set running faster than the first with a surface speed of 130fps. I believe we currently have just over 1.75" of compression. We decided to shoot the ball as fast as possible with as little compression as possible to minimize the effect of ball inconsistencies. In testing there has been little to no noticeable difference between new and heavily abused balls as long as there are no large chunks taken out

At competition we were running the shooter at 60%
