Can you provide some insight as to why chose your collector design over a BoomDone collector?

Is your catapult cocked and released with a 550 and a giant Cam?

That's exactly how our catapult is fired, although it is geared down quite a bit, as you might expect.

As for your first question, we found that our current style of intake is incredibly effective. It might not be that clear from the video, but if the ball even barely touches our intake rollers from almost any direction, it's in the robot. It may look different from the BoomDone design, but I can pretty much guarantee that it is just as effective, if not more so.
