Intake and Shooter (Flywheel) Motors

Hello everyone,

This year I have noticed many teams have decided to prototype, and even fully develop their boulder intake methods to include a roller or rolling wheels of some type. I have also noticed that many teams have been trying out flywheel shooters.

So my questions to you are:

1.
If you are using a roller/wheel driven intake mechanism, what kind of motors/gearboxes will you be using?

2.
If you are using a flywheel setup, what kind of gearbox and motor combination do you intend on using to launch boulders?

My team is strongly considering the aforementioned mechanisms, and want to collect some general information on the ideas.

Thank you!
