The ball shooter on the robot. As it was shown here, the shooter was only moderately effect. The problem with our initial design was that we were not getting enough compression on the Poof balls as we shot them, so our target range was optimally only 12 feet away from the goal. After two competitions, we added an extra 1/8" Lexan plate between the shooter wheels and the curved back piece of the shooter. The extra compression provided by this as the balls shot through the shooter was enough to more than double our range: by the time the off-season competition Bash at the Beach came around, we could shoot into the Center Goal without ever leaving the starting box (aka shooting from mid-field.)
