As to answer you question, it cannot tilt down, but we have a magnetic sensor on the Fischer price gear box for the flywheel that monitors rotations, we have programing so that the closer the trailer is, the slower the flywheel spins, thus adjusting how far the balls will go. We utilized similar ideas on 2k6.
If any team can pull off a shooter without an adjustable hood it will be you guys. I hope it works for you. How many balls per second can you guys shoot and do you have the tracking working well?

Also just curious...how much sheet aluminum do you guys go through?
