Re: Ball Knocker Advice

We are working on our "ball popper" as well. We have a 24" throw piston to play with for actuation. We've run into two problems: 1. Where to place the device so that it won't tip us over when it strikes the overpass and where it won't interfere with our other device. 2. The Geometry of the ball makes punching it off the overpass a very interesting challenge. I guess this is the problem with putting something in as an after thought.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
