Finalizing the Mechanism for the Shooting Arm
Basketball shooter update ⛹️♂️
•••
I decided to revise the mechanism for the shooting arm so I could eliminate the springs required to help the motor out. This would allow the arm to naturally drop back into it’s ready position between shots.
•••
After a week of iterations, I finally decided to order bigger motors, which quickly fixed the problem and made the previous 6 iterations useless. Next up is the ball catchers that would place the ball back on the scoop after it goes through the basket.
