FIRST Robotics: Behind the Design. Get the 2006 (and 2007) version, for the game known as Aim High.

If you can't find enough turrets in there for you, then browse CD-Media.

Re: Rotating ball cannon

look at Aim High (2006) for turret designs, im not sure about rotating but teams like 522 and 25 had amazing shooters. Our team (303) had a decent design that ended up not working because of a few minor flaws but if you can find some pictures of it in the New Jersey or Chesapeake regional that may help.

Re: Rotating ball cannon

Team 111 had a very effective turret in 2006. Their bot is in the behind the design book. You can also take a look at their bot on the blue alliance:
