Re: Springs?? (10 lbs. at 22 ft/s)

What if you were the inspector, what would you be looking for?

How secure is the spring attached to the robot?
How secure is the launching pad between the trackball and spring?
What has been done to protect against pinch points between the launcher and robot?

These are just a few of the questions I would have (not and inspector). What other ones could you ask.

Aside: Putting your robot on display (grade schools, sponsors etc) will be a riot if you can hurdle the trackball 7-8 feet in the air! The only problem will be getting that blasted 41" trackball through a standard door.
