ball dumpers/throwers types

[JKWarrior]

Dumping multiple balls at once isn't practical. feed the balls one or two at a time would be better, but then the dumper jams easier

Can anyone post a video of the shooting so that i can show my team?

Thank you.

I'll see what I can do but it'll probably be at least Tuesday by the time I get it up since the video is at school (this is of course, a video of a prototype). A sheet of Lexan (taken from our ramps in 07) was rolled to create a tube in which I think 6-7 of the orbit balls could be stacked. This was used as the feed, and it shot them out pretty quickly (i.e. less than a second). It occasionally jammed because of the poor mounting on 1/16" aluminum with no braces (esp. when fed off center).
