We've learned to make the most of what we have. We found that we could easily use smaller motors spin our shooter's wheels fast enough to fire a ball. And using pulleys we found ways to stretch the use of each motor not used in the drive train or shooting mechanism further. It takes year of practice. In our team’s case, 11 years now. Just keep thinking up inventive ways and your team can do the same.
