Mind if I ask how the shooter feeder works?

Also does it hang?

Yes, it does hang, just wasn't featured during the photoshoot and SVT.

It'll be a part of our 30 lb allowance.

As for the shooter feeder, it's a drum that has a surface speed of ~150" per second and a roller that assists the feeding process, which is placed on top of the frisbee. This allows us to "rapid fire" frisbees.

Looking great as always. Looking forward to seeing you guys in San Diego in a few weeks.

That's awesome. My next question, what material is on the drum? We thought of something like this but never found a material sticky enough to pull a disc out of the stack while angled.

Juice. Pure, 100% juice.

More gorgeous robots coming from California...
Love the powder-coat, the wheels, and especially the crisp electronics!
Keep on doing what you're doing because you make the west coast shine!

Looking at that, how did you account for initial decelleration at shot time? We found we had to wait ~700 Milliseconds in order to get the wheels to ramp up to full power. I apologize if that was covered in the video, my internet currently cannot load it....
