Go to Post Do you guys mind if we postpone kick-off to around January 26 or so? We can still keep the ship date on February 20, if that isn't a problem. - dlavery [more]

Team 67's incredible shooter

I've been watching 67's matches lately and haven't been able to keep my jaw off the ground at their shooter. I was able to pause a video frame and get a small glimpse of their shooter on Youtube. It appears they are using the orange 2 7/8" BaneBots wheels (a .8" thick one with a .4" on top). It looks like it's three wheeled.

Has anyone out there played with/against them who can testify to this? (Or maybe someone from the HOT team) I'm looking to find out what motors they are using and what reduction, if any.

We are running a three wheeled shooter with the same BaneBots wheels (expect with the "blue" density). We have three RS 550 motors powering it through Versa-planetary gearboxes. The first wheel that the Frisbee touches is a 5:1 and the second two wheels are running 1:1. Although we are happy with the set-up, we haven't seen anywhere near the same performance that HOT is getting out of theirs. Any information and advice is appreciated.

Thanks
