That means that whatever encourages the balls to leave ur bot must have the ability to get a lot of them out in a very short period of time. Which also means that whatever system that you are using to get the balls up to the top of the bot must be able to get them up at a very quick pace (cim with 4:1?).

But thats just guesses.
There are 3 mechanisms:
1 sucking the balls in
1 pulling the balls up
1 pushing the balls out
