Re: pic: FRC 237 - 2006 Shooter mechanism

we knew that we wanted to shoot the orbit balls from the start, but instead of having the balls come up from below and go "Around" the wheel, we saved work by mounting the shooter wheel above where the balls fall out and having them roll underneath,


not directly driven though, we couldent figure it out, so we made a "spoiler" and chained it off(allowed us to have a 4-1 gearbox)
