342 video of just a little practice in the shop before ship.
Now you see the reason for my bias towards launcher:cool:

"Burnie"
He has:
6 wheel “rocker” w/ 4 cims
2 2" Bimbas cylinders on the launcher
1 1.5"Parker cylinder on the grabber
1 1.5" to knock the ball off
capable of 4-5 hurdles in a good match
Wow, all I can say is that that is a beautifully simplistic robot. And I love the shiny side panels, too. That being said, I suppose that I have a bias towards launchers as well, this year… 
I noticed that your cylinders extend all the way when you fire your catapult. How’s your bot looking on a “recharge” time? Our team discovered early on that air consumption would be a bit of a problem with this type of pneumatic catapult design, so I’m wondering to see how your team’s handling that.
Again, very nice robot. Hopefully, we’ll be crossing paths in Atlanta this year!
Thanks, but it would never had been possible without your preload advice! We have 3-4 inches of preload and it made all the difference. As for air, we can shoot as long as we are 60+ psi (duh:P ) and it takes about 20 seconds for a charge from 60 back to 120 psi. I’d love to play with you guys in Atlanta [fingers crossed].Thanks again 1726!
Here is a video with just a little more practice and inventor pics.
