so, the one thing i tend to struggle with when building is the fact that if you want to build a flipper that's any larger than a CW, you're going to need the power of 2 judge bursts for it to remain competitive. However, sometimes that tends to ruin certain bots that could only look good with only one burst motor.
i ran into this problem when i built my latest bot, this one.

although this doesn't always happen, it is a major pain when it does. so i suggest adding in a variant of the judge burst that is something like the BBEANS stacked blackvolt, it takes up the space of one judge burst, but has the weight of two and only 3 fourths the power of two judge burst to balance out the fact that it wouldn't need as much space.
Thoughts?

I actually like the idea. Pneumatic flippers are extremely powerful, so I don't think it would be beyond IRL standards.

judge burst is already OP. I would have something like a smaller beta burst.

Ironforge has one.
And if it's too op, one could always increase the weight a little so it's slightly heavier than two judge burst.
That and, in my opinion beta burst are a little slow in terms of burst, yes, it can toss bots like nobodies business, but IRL flippers can fire like a gun. Waaay faster than the beta.
That, and Idk how to make, reshape or Resize components at all.
EDIT: it's done. I'll be testing it before releasing it in DSL 2.1.1
