Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far

Someone representing the mechanical team better jump in! This monstrosity is just our proof of concept -- the production version will be much more compact. We're direct-driving double stacked 2008 KOP wheels to distribute load a bit more evenly across the orbit ball upon contact. After today's tests, we'll likely have to move to something as long as ~5" to guarantee consistent firing velocity.
