Re: Fueling Scoring Challenge

Ok, so help me here, I'm math impaired.

15 balls per second = 900 balls per min.

In a match that is over 2000 balls out of ~600 available at any one time. Into a single goal. I consider 15 a second to be crazy talk, but I've been here a long time, so I can be convinced.

So I'll offer up the STEMRobotics "Why yes we can shoot that" challenge grant. Show me that you can shoot 12 balls a second for eight seconds (96 balls in total) and STEMRobotics will send your team $100. I'd like most to go into the goal, but really to do 12 a second will be great.

1) Line your robot up
2) Load 100 balls in, human help is fine
3) Shoot 96 of them in 8 seconds to the upper boiler goal
4) Profit!



Send me links with "Why yes we can shoot that" as the title.
