Nice design! Im wondering why it wasn't shooting straight (it was at an angle to the target) is that a design choice? If so why?

The left pull on the shooter came when we adjusted the shooter wheels once. It is because the side wall extends a few inches beyond the wheels. But since it shoots consistently we decided to leave it. We will have the camera mount at the actual shooting angle.

Here is a short video of our practice shooting at the eTech Ohio conference yesterday (Feb. 11). A William Tell reenactment.

It really wasn't as hard as I thought. We were just careful with the testing. (We shot a water bottle out of someone's hand first.) A couple of adjustments, by a little bit each time.


Here are a couple of other videos we shot last night:

Automatic Firing Sequence

Half Court Shooting

Harlem Shake

Testing the RGB light strip
