Congratulations on an amazing and an original design! Can't wait to see it in action...
First time ever running it. EVER. I swear.

I guess my real question is how many times a match will you be able to load 10 & actually shoot ten at a time?
Also, are you using the camera to target the goal, or just dead reckoning with a perfect line of sight to the goal?

That is in impressive in any case, I just am wondering how feasible it will be during a match to get 10 balls in there & score all ten.
Well, we'll have to wait and see, won't we?

In any case we don't have to shoot all the balls in the magazine. The intake/elevator is on a victor so we can vary the speed and only feed a few balls in at a time.

We are also adept at both ground and HP loading. So we should be able to reload fairly quickly... or pickup what we've already missed.
