Well I guess it is safe to release a few videos for everyone to see. If you haven't seen our robot/catapult yet, check it out here:
Robot
and
Catapult
Anyway, here are a few links to videos.
This first video shows the catapult throwing over 30 feet. It might be hard to believe from the angle, but I can assure you all that it is.

This video is a close-up of the catapult. You can get a better idea of how it works. We don't have the elevator turned so you can't see it loading.

The final video shows the consistency of the catapult. It's only slow in this video because we are loading it manually and taking our time.

Well I hope you enjoyed these. Feel free to check out our other videos as well. And watch out for us at Kansas City and 10,000 Lakes.
