That is awesome!! And it sounds like you have pretty good accuracy. What type of motors are you using for shooting? We are doing something similar with shooting and 2 conveyor systems controlled by one motor to pick up the balls from the floor to put them into a shooter device that we will be testing again this next week
The 2008 team is not the 2007 team and won't be the 2009 team. Every year is a new year and a new opportunity for growth and development as a FIRST team. It's very cool. - JaneYoung [more]
