Even more important, how far does it shoot a shirt?
Regarding holding pressure over time, could you use the five compressors to get up to pressure, and only one compressor to hold the pressure? Are all five needed for speed re-filling, or for getting a higher pressure?
Our HS has a new track and fake-grass field -- no wheels allowed anytime. Last spring our team joined an overnight cancer walk with 100s of people walking the track and running all over the field. I'm sure the athletics people were shuddering in pain. I was almost sure someone would run out and tackle the Moms with strollers {nothing happened, but the thought was amusing}. I was willing to chance the robots on the track but the team's powers-that-be didn't -- there was also some rain, which didn't help. Would wide inflated tires help?
