I'd love to know how your catapult was powered. One of the bigger advantages to a catapult in my opinion is that you can make it have a consistent amount of power with relatively little programming by using springs, pneumatics, and hard stops.

Now there are ways to make each of these methods shoot from multiple positions, and also ways to make your trajectory flat enough to shoot from a ton of different locations with the same shot.

I'd love to hear about how some of the best catapult teams made their catapults work this year.
