Space in Chassis w/out shooter: 9,038in^3

CAM Lead-Patrick I worked on testing Clem's Shooter Design, based on the testing that has been done so far, for placements in the current chassis design. Afterwards it became of interest to the several teams to know how much space we have left for the Hopper, and about how many balls we can hold. Here is what I've found: -Please Note That All Values Are Approximated- Size of Tote: 4,790in^3 Balls per Tote: 33 (40 were counted in total, however 40 do not fit)

Single Shooter- Space in Chassis w/out shooter: 9,038in^3 Space Occupied by single Shooter (as of 2:10pm on 1/27): 521in^3 (Shooter calculated as a triangle and the motor was not included) Difference: 8,517in^3 (Shooter treated as at triangle; space immediately in front of shooter is included, although unusable) Space available after Shooter and unusable space: 7,997in^3 33balls/(4790in^3)=0.00688935 balls/in^3 0.00688935balls/(1in^3)*7997in^3=55.09 balls (This is under ideal circumstances; expect a number closer to 45 balls)

Double Shooter- Space occupied by 2 shooters: 1,042in^3 (Double the value of a single shooter w/out unusable space) Total space taken by shooter and unusable space: 2,084 in^3 (Double the value above) Space left for Hopper: 6,954in^3 0.00688935balls/(1in^3)*6954in^3=47.91balls (This is under ideal circumstances; expect a number closer to 40 balls) Things not accounted for: Climber, Feed, Alternative Shooter Designs, etc.
