In 2014 we did a shorter pulse on the solenoids for our catapult, for passing and for truss.

Re: How to change catapult shot strength?

Also, if you want to change the arc mechanically, you can put the pneumatic cylinders on a separate regulator and adjust that to give it more or less power.

Re: How to change catapult shot strength?

148 has a pair of hooks that actuate in place to become a variable hard stop for their pneumatapult. Because the ball is released at different times from the arm, they have two different shots.
