5. 3D Printed Flywheel

3D PRINTED FLYWHEEL Introduction When the 2015-2016 Nothing but Net game was revealed, the team instantly began working on countless prototypes. In our sessions during the summer, we built many different shooters such as catapults, double flywheels, and single flywheels.  Then we thought, how could we improve our prototypes?  How can we create a flywheel that provides us a higher performance than traditional VRC wheels?  How can we make our flywheels more efficient?  After some thought, our answers became clear: 3D Printing.
