Maybe that's what the empty pocket in the plate the catapult rotates around is for? A VP to adjust the throw?

Everytime I've looked at this picture (a lot of times) I've noticed something cooler. My favorite part may be that the catapult is offset by ~30 degrees on the turret to allow for a longer lever arm.

This robot is all about the little details, pun intended.
