Re: How will FIRST measure muzzle velocity?
The "best angle" still appears to be near 45 degrees. I've made up a spreadsheet that roughly accounts for air resistance and I'm still getting the best range at around 43 degrees. Definitely not 30 degrees. However, my spreadsheet also doesn't think 35 feet is possible at 30 degrees, so make of that what you will. This is, of course, completely theoretical. We're going to cobble together a prototype in a day or two and see what that says.
