Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
We hope so.

Thanks for the compliments. That really depends on how high we end up shooting from and our distance away from the goal. I'm not sure we could give a number. That height was less than 5 feet so in theory we could just shoot from there. Quote:

It's much easier than that. The spline on the output shaft is the same as the one on the sun gear. You just remove the whole 10:1 stage and bolt the front and back of the gearbox together. |

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
The three 0.4" wheels fit perfectly. The two .8" wheels have about .5" sticking over the top of the shaft, we just put a longer 1/4-20 bolt on with a washer, seems to work well enough.

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
Why did you go with 2 different wheel thickness? Just what you had around?

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
The .4" orange wheels can be bought using the BB PDV. We purchased 2 .8" of all three colors after we tested how grippy they were to the discs. We just left the .4" ones on there for now. We'll best testing a bunch of different wheel combinations over the next week.

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
The front of the board was at about 15 ft.

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
Did you or are you going to try the larger diameter (3.875" or 4.875") Banebot wheels?

Re: Prototype Small Wheeled Shooter
Better question is whether there's anything to be gained adding a third wheel to the setup so you can make a smother transition up to the final wheel speed. Something like starting with the BB550 in a 10:1 then BB550 in a 5:1, then the 1:1 BAG. I'm pretty sure the higher initial velocity your final wheel sees, the farther you'll shoot and faster you'll recover.

If the frisbee is not exiting that second wheel at 60 mph it might be because it is slipping. So, either: 1) crank down the speed of that second wheel a bit to stop the slipping and get a higher exit speed, or 2) crank up the speed of the first wheel, which is presently only 1930 rpm, which translates to 16 mph tangential velocity or 8 mph exit speed. A higher exit speed from the first wheel means a higher entry speed into the second wheel, which may reduce the slipping in the second wheel and give a higher exit speed * I realize that due to windage and vibration it will be less than that |
