Looks great! I’m wondering what type of shooter you are using. It looks like a hooded shooter powered by a CIM. How has that worked out for you? Have you found it to be finicky?
neat! we are probably a week away from being able to do that…
I noticed that the first ball went quite a ways further than the second and third. That’s what we anticipated, so we added a “hopper” that stores the balls so they can be shot one at a time. This allows the shooter wheel to get back up to speed between shots, and also to make sure each ball has a good chance of making it in the goal.
The shooter is powered by a cim using gates belting and has a 45 degree hood on it.
The rapid fire was to test for auto. mode; during teleop we will fire one ball at a time to get the same distance everytime
