Like I said though, it is untested and we have to put the belt/fabric on the con-VADER and then mount our cannon. Weight is becoming an issue

very nice. once you get it driving, tell us if 8inches of clearance is always good enough .i was wondering if bouncing balls will bounce off the frame that is "too low" like 8in maybe? or if they just get dragged under..
