This looks really effective! good job.

We are using two limit's sensors (in order to provide for us two positions: the armed position for the kick and the position after of the kick. Note: the same sensor which detect that the ball was been kicked will detect if there is some ball for kick).
So we keep our kick armed within FRAME PERIMETER and when the driver to press the button, the CIM motor turns forward. After kick, CIM motor turns reverse and keep armed position.
By PWM variation we can change how far the ball goes!
Note: we'll adapt some mechanism to guarantee that pendulum will keep the armed position when the robot move yourself.
