Re: pic: Robonaut Machine Gun

Those look to be coming out a bit hot (12 meters per second is the maximum speed). Have you been able to measure them? The easiest way is to fire the gun at 30 degrees and see how far it goes... it should be around 35 feet.

How far away is the robot from to goal in that picture? You can use the video to get speed if you know that...
