I don't see how that video supports your statement. Can you explain, or provide something more than your word?

Re: Ball Condition

We have found that the catapult was more accurate, and can you show how that wasn't accurate, from the video, it looked as though it went pretty straight.

That wasn't a catapult in the video. That was a shooter. See the Triplets in 2006. If you're calling that a catapult, then you may want to look at 191's loading mechanism in 2006--that was a short-range catapult, feeding a shooter.

Re: Ball Condition

The balls, like anything else on the Robot and playfield, are subject to wear. Design your Robot accordingly.
