Re: 10 Balls per second?

Don't forget that for every ball that comes out of your shooter, one has to go in first. While these rapid-fire videos are quite impressive looking, I am curious to see how any of you will be able to load the shooter that fast. Seems it would take some time to raise the balls into a shooter, and if the balls are already above so gravity does the work then your shooter is somewhat below the the top of your robot - allowing for shot blocking.
