They will work out fine if you know how to use them right?

One thread to be looked at dealing with turret design if you are really serious can be seen here:

Good luck with your design!

Team 118 has been using turrets for the past two years (2006, 2005) and they have worked well with the game and our designs.

Here is a picture of our robot last year. We used a globe, if I am not mistaken, to run the turret.

Kinda off-topic, but I like that Aim High shooter. Looks like what we did with our harvester, only taken up a notch. Props!

Thanks.

Our shooter was great. The goal of having a turret was that we could shoot from any orientation on the field but due to the wiring (my bad), we could not go a full 360, but we could get a good 180 in each direction almost.
