Introduction

In this Lesson, you will learn how to score two Balls into the High Goal by adjusting the tension of the Catapult Tension Motor on Fling. Then, you will apply these skills to complete a mini-challenge where you will adjust the tension to launch three Balls into the High Goal.

Learning Target(s)

At the end of this Lesson, I will be able to...
