Balloon Launcher Testing

We went through several tests with our balloon launcher. First, we tested with water balloons. Through this round of testing we discovered that the angle you have to pull the bungee down is not realistic for people in a wheel chair. You had to pull it down towards the ground in order to hit the canvas.

To solve this problem, we put legs on the launcher to have it at an angle where you just need to pull the bungee straight back so the balloon would line drive and hit the canvas.

Through our multiple rounds of testing we made various modifications to the launcher.
