Re: Pitching Style Or Catapult???

Well by the sounds of it we might have one of the only catapult designs. I can't speak for it's accuracy as it is not assembled yet, but we had 90% accuracy on the prototype made out of spare conduit and bike parts .

The latest picture we have (rather outdated - now robot is painted black and has wheels on) be seen at: http://marsbot.org/gallery/?g2_itemId=3069

Our inventor renderings (being completed as we build the bot ): http://marsbot.org/files/images/bot_iso.gif

Hope you think it's decent! We will post a video of the speed of the throwing arm soon but let me assure you its impressive!
