Need help finding an old thread!!
A while back, maybe around week 2 I saw a thread started with a video of a prototype kicker mechanism. It was driven by a CIM motor and possibly a gearbox. It was very simple and pretty strong. It powered a "kit frame" assembly from a vertical position that pretty much did a 180 and kicked the ball at the bottom. If I remember correctly it kicked it toward the camera into the goal and the team was aiming into a small grey trash can. That's about as detailed as my memory is, but could someone PLEASE tell me where to find it again???
