CIM motors and shooters.

Using modulox systems for shooter, but CIM motors not moving fast enough to shoot ball.

Re: CIM motors and shooters.

So start playing around with compression of the balls and other motors.

Re: CIM motors and shooters.

Compression on the ball can be a big factor but so can your gearing choice with the Modulox. We can probably help you with your selection but would it be possible to share some pictures or maybe a cad of your set up? You can post here or email me directly at dan@ir3creative.com and we should be able to help you.
