Sweet looking robot too.

When drawn back all the way it can shoot from the 1point goal over the truss to the human. We had some issues with our encoders so we settled for a less drawn back shot so we could make 10point goals at our first regional. The shot itself is incredibly consistent.

It makes the coolest sound when it shoots. Definitely a crowd and announcer pleaser.
