Yep! We discovered that today too and after brutally mutilating it to exactly fit our robot, it's now... well, part of our robot.
We were able to shoot 4 frisbees in about the same speed, maybe SLIGHTLY slower by turning two cim motors with pneumatic wheels attached and using a window motor with L-bracket attached to push frisbees into our two wheels. On the controller, x moves the window motor forward and y moves it backwards, so quickly spamming xyxyxyxy means we shoot 4 frisbees extremely fast, and they ALL hit EXACTLY the same spot, not counting mistakes caused by human error (still prototyping)

We found the same thing our 1 wheel linear shooter has been very powerful and accurate, and is easily shooting full court. With an 8 inch pneumatic wheel direct driven by a cim
