Re: Launching Shooter-style

Well the ball is only 2-3 pounds (2.75 on the AM website) so I don't think mass is a problem. And the drag might be large on such a large game piece, but the catapults seem to fly fine....

I understand the risk of tearing fabric, but surely with them inflated to the instructions provided, I would think this risk is relatively low... I'm just surprised that no one looks to have at least TRIED it....

We should have a working prototype in the coming days, so if no one has anything, I'll post our results in a few days
