Re: kicker

We have changed our design so that we can draw back the kicker with two big pistons, then latch the kicker (it's spring loaded) and then deploy the pistons so they're out of the way, release the latch, and BOOM! Big kick, lots of speed, and (I hope) bullet proof reliability.

PM me and I'll see if I can take some pictures...
