what was the best shooting mechanism for 2016?

An FRC team's success should not be measured in how many robots it can build or how many blue banners it can collect. It should be measured by how many engineers (and other professionals) it 'builds'. - jvriezen [more]

Re: what was the best shooting mechanism for 2016?

This is just guessing, but the catapult could probably be unreliable sometimes if the springs got stretched out. The wheeled shooter is effective, but as you said it has much to do with the condition of the boulder. Also if the wheels don't spin fast enough (be a programming or mechanical issue) it won't shoot out as expected. "Its is all in the execution"
