There is a company that makes RC switches for bb cannon used by model ship clubs like MWCI that may help. Different ammo but the triggering mechanism is similar - 1 shot per pull. http://www.teamdelta.com/
I havent tried them because I like to use a poppet valve made by Clippard called the MAV-3. I have a servo push down on it. At 10PSI, it fires pretty fast. Just make sure the valve and servo ar emounted solidly together. I use a bracked fashiones out of aluminum. BTW: I should have my M3A1 ready by the end of the month. - Martin On Jul 8, 10:43 am, Modena <[email protected]> wrote: > > A couple questions: > > > 1) When do you need it done? > > > 2) What range for X and Y would you like to have? > > > Frank P. > > 1) anytime - I'm not ready for it yet, but will be in a few weeks > > 2) I am almost totally guessing here, but I think for X (dwell time) > it would need to be in the order 0.005 - 0.050 of a second (5 - 50 > milliseconds).
