A couple of short clips - final stages of flipper testing






We were testing that at around midnight as we were quite tight on time, at one point we wanted to throw something in the air just to have an idea if the throw was strong enough. So I set the regulator at 6bar, took the machine out in the front garden and put a 2L water bottle on the flipper edge... and gave it a go... that threw the bottle one storey in the air and almost over to our neighbour's balcony!


Monday will try to find time to open up one side where the drive system stays, take a couple of pics and post a description of how we got it set up. It was a real pain to get it working, and we ended up with an emergency set up - it worked but I'm not happy with it, so it will be modified for sure - or totally eliminated and replaced by wheels...
