Re: Fixed Angle vs. Adjustable angle Shooter

My team sees a little bit of benefit to being able to adjust the angle of the shot, even if it is just 45* OR 75*, we want there to be some control over it. We prototyped some designs for throwers, and now that we've got one that we like, we're in the process of constructing a fixed 45* thrower, just to have a final, to-spec design that we can pass off to the programming sub-team. This way they can start getting the measurements they need to calibrate aiming code, and while they're doing that the mechanical sub-team will get to work on building a variable angle "hood" (for lack of better term). It should be interesting how each team solves the same problem!
