I would love this, it seems to be legal. Pneumatic actuators under a 1" stroke are legal, and it's just a matter of getting a correct mounting. I'd imaging if there's a standard size of solenoid actuators, it's just a matter of getting a shroud around it that's the same dimensions as the pancake solenoid from VEX to swap in the ball shifter.
