Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
Very cool implementation, I like the idea of different wheel diameters to get different surface speeds.
I can't tell from the picture, what motors are you using? |

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
We're using a 550 through a 4:1 planetary on each wheel. The design was actually inspired by your prototype. Thank you for posting it!

Negative. One motor on each wheel. We felt that coupling the wheels would be a "double jeopardy" of sorts (when the first wheel slows down, it'll drag the second wheel with it). Also, doubling the power allows the shooter to recover more quickly between shots.

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
We haven't had a chance to extensively test it, but we also haven't been able to put frisbees through the the shooter fast enough to slow it down. Take that as you will.

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
Have you tried any slighter angles to the ground for more distance? Is it giving them enough push to make it somewhat across the field?
(or maybe that isn't your goal) |

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
We still have some adjusting to do. That's why we tried to get it functional as fast as possible.

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
We're happy it helped. What are the wheel diameter's right now?

Re: pic: 319's Small Wheeled Shooter
Right now we're running a 2-7/8" on the first wheel and a 3-7/8" on the second wheel.
