Also: How is this firing? Is it a motor? Spring? Pneumatics? I see a red cord of some kind holding the catapult, so my bets are on spring-based ratcheted shifter.

It is motor retract with pneumatic release. A mini-cim retracts the strap until a 1/2 inch rod catches on a latch. Then the winch spools out the strap and a pneumatic piston releases the latch when we want to fire it.
