Re: Allowing the Ball into the shooter
We use a gravity fed chute to hold the balls. At the bottom of the shoot is a small wheel attached to a globe motor to stop the balls from going into the shooter. This allows us to spin the shooter up to full speed, then allow the balls to enter the shooter by running the globe motor and the small wheel attached to it.
