Change Up Flywheel V1

Pros and Cons

• Pros:

• The flywheel unit uses two standard 200 rpm motor to launch the balls into the posts

• The tray power unit has a 10:1 gear ratio which, with the hood, shoots the balls

• High strength axle is used to make sure axle doesn't bend when motors suddenly stop  providing power

• Power is evenly split between both sides of the flywheel

• Grip mat is wrapped around the wheel to add more friction between the ball and the hood to launch it further.

• Cons:

• The balls were shot at inconsistent lengths 

• An extra motor is wasted since this action can be done with simply one motor.

• The startup to reach max speed took a long time
