It's worth noting that our design requires a high flow solenoid in order to get enough power to the pistons in order to make a shot. If you don't have any, a work around would be to have one solenoid feed to each piston and have them fire simultaneously in code.

We actually have a high flow solenoid feeding each of our pistons, though these just arrived today and were not used in obtaining the numbers for the test above; those came from 1 of the old grey solenoids from 2006(?) feeding each cylinder.
