Spinning Lift GBC

This is a modified design that was originally created by turbopolofr on Planet GBC and featured on the YouTube channel Let’s Do This. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ori2SKNwlc&t=2s I loved the design but it is a mini-loop. I wanted it to be an in-line model to link up with other GBC’s that my students and I had built. I made several modifications: converted the model to be run by an EV3 using a medium motor, increased the support of the gear train in the under carriage, added a capture basin with a spinning turnstile linked to the medium motor, and a variable angle exit spout. It isn’t perfect, but I think it came out great. It can't handle a lot of balls at the same time. Even the original model had this problem. It needs to be linked with a GBC that puts out one ball at a time. However, it does conform to the GBC rule of 1 ball per second and it can handle balls moving at that rate. Thanks again the the original designer for posting their creation!
