Actually, implementing a railgun would probably be feasible as long as the projectile weight and powerload is taken into consideration. I'm not sure if the battery can handle multiple +1 gram projectiles though. And not to mention the need for a new chasis with space for a PCB with series of capasitors as I suspect the chemical battery can't deliver the necessary Ampere during the short time the projectile spends accelerating on the rails. ^_^
Would be cool in an extremely geekyness way. What's next, a freerunner chasis that doubles as a tesla coil? PS. Tesla coils are way cool, with a sufficent _high_ voltage it's even possible to use your body/hands/fingers as a tesla coil. Imagine using your body as a electric resonance cavity and then letting the lightning play between your fingers and your hands. Now add a mad scientist laugh while wearing a laboratory coat. ;) Completely OT? You bet I am! :P Heikki Soerum. PS. Go read about what Tesla did with electricity.. It will blow your mind.
