This video shows the new revised Arduino coding working correctly and the added power switch and battery option.
The coding used in this video is "Catapult 2" in the Google Drive coding folder for our project.

The spring tenstion control arm still occasionally has trouble going to the max position due to the lack of torque in the servo. We are considering changing springs or further lightening the components in order to get more consistent object travel range upon firing.
The Arduino board placement and wires are still temporary for testing purposes and will be tidied up once we have all the functions we want.
We are contemplating putting an LCD display or LED lights to show the status/readiness of the catapult.
