Well first of all we are having a cop come and test our speed but it is close, we know, to the 12m/sec. The angle is adjustable and so is the pinch...but what we made our final shooter out to be is a bit different then this shooter. We have the angle set and the pinch set at a certain point but the shooter is fully functional from the robot by being able to pan about 270 degrees and tilt up and down to get the desired distance on the ball. This right now has caused some feeding problems but we are making a mechanism that holds the balls in a hopper and gravity feeds it from the top into a tube that can rotate and tilt with the shooter. I have a new video of our shooter getting 3 out of 4 rapid fire balls in the goal but thats cause the ball was fed wrong...lol! I just have to say the loader for loading the balls for this years robot has been a real pain!!!! small areas and reinforcing the frame has cause for a weird yet cool frame design

Does anyone have ideas for the hopper device or holding balls in the robot??
