This is a very cool project because the students must be creative in their design with materials they supply, all while keeping it within a 1 x 1 square footprint.
As stated above, we had to have accuracy in the actual test.

We shot it really straight. After we finished building it I was concerned it would hook, like a paintball gun. But after testing it surprisingly shot dead straight.

Re: pic: My POE Ballistic Device Project

i havent done this before, but am about to for my POE class. finding this is part of my "identify the problem/research current solutions" interesting... im thinkin bout doing somethin similar making something like a spring powered cannon-esque launcher. i also worried about the ballistics of a ping-pong ball and arching like a paintball, but i guess that wasnt an issue here?
