Just out of curiosity, how are you guys with top-heavyness? I assume the turret and shooter are going to be up in the air.

It is always a concern...but it obviously hasn't stopped us from continuing with this design.
The shooter itself has been optimized for weight. Everything else is stuck in the base, low to the ground......and if you avoid certain on field elements, CG isn't quite as big of a concern!
If you look close at the ball elevator you'll see that there really isn't anything there. A few aluminum tubes and a couple of plates! The turret pictured on top weights 3.75 lbs. with a globe.
