Poll: Turrets for Rebound Rumble

[Chris is me]

We are adding a turret for two reasons:

1. We've done it before, easily.
2. It involves software to aim well, but you can also manually set our turret and shooter assembly for autonomous mode this year.

If either of those things weren't true, I would support a non-turreted shooter for my team. We just did well last time with a COTS lazy susan type bearing setup that we're refining for 2012.

There's rarely a question of "best" in FRC. There is only "best for your team". That said, a turret for many ball shooters is a decision with a much lower opportunity cost than, say, a swerve drive. Thus you will likely see turrets at the top of play no matter what.
