As to answer you question, it cannot tilt down, but we have a magnetic sensor on the Fischer price gear box for the flywheel that monitors rotations, we have programing so that the closer the trailer is, the slower the flywheel spins, thus adjusting how far the balls will go. We utilized similar ideas on 2k6.
Sorry, I missed your other question.

Yes, the drive rails are 3x3 box tubing 1/8th thick aluminum.

Many similar ideas, yet everything as always has been modified, been made smaller, lighter, and hopefully better : )
