: 2 wheel drive, drills (?) in the rear, casters in front.
Yes - Drill motors on a no-chain drive

: Ball sucking loader.
Yep - Globe motor controlling 2 PVC rollers wrapped in rubber belting(see new pictures at link below)

: Carries 6 or so balls (guessing)
Would you believe 8 or 9 reliably? Check out the pictures...I didn't believe it at first either!

: Entire ball sucker/basket lifts via nested slides in rear of machine.
That center 'wall' on the basket stays behind, makes it easier to get the balls back out via same method

: Low rider. Entire machine fits below 30 inch bar in starting position.
Yep

: Looks fairly light.
I wish...we were busy making 'speed holes' earlier today, and might have to have a few more put in

: Hangs?
All I can say is see the pictures - 2 van door motors on a common shaft provide a lot of power for lifting, and thanks to the dynamic braking on the V883s, she doesn't like coming back down...

: If you see more or know more, please share your thoughts.

Motor Use:
Drive Train: Drill Motors
Basket Lift: FP motor with pulley/winch system
Infeed/Outfeed Rollers: Globe Motor
'The Hook' Positioning and Extension: Window Motors
'The Hook' Winch/Robot Lift: Van Door Motors
