Re: 3 Balls in a second and a half

Very cool.

The competition field has the bottom of the net zip tied to the chute. This severely constricts the bottom opening and causes two balls coming in simultaneously, or near simultaneously (like in your video) to get completely jammed.

You may already be aware of this. Just a heads up.

Yes we are.. As I said these are rough tests and we are looking for better spacing of the balls being shot.

How are you managing the wires between the turret and frame? Nice fabrication on the shooter, by the way, sounds AND looks nice and smooth
It's not going to be doing the full 360's, it was just for fun. We will mainly be using about only 180 degrees of it at most.

Re: 3 Balls in a second and a half

Is your shooter wheel direct driven by two BB RS775s? I didn't see any gearing in the video.
