Re: Catapults At Championship
My team (714) is using a slingshot system. I'm not sure if you want to include that in your list.
We use a cannon like chamber through which we accelerate the ball with a plate attached to calibrated surgical tubing. Upon moment of release we add a backspin for consistancy in trajectory.
Good Luck to everyone at St. Louis! We'll be in the Newton Division, see you all there!
