3000uF at 12V is possible in a pretty small package if you use double layer capacitor types instead of standard electrolytics.
I would say a solenoid. You might want to google "RC warship gun". Basically air driven, semi-autos for BBs. (and they're remote controlled)igpay wrote:Ok, well, For an airsoft Sniper Rifle(I no longer care for it to be semi-automatic) which do you all think would have better results:
A four-way ball valve(so i can load at the top)
or
a solenoid valve.
If the highlighted point is your major concern then the ONLY thing that matters is the barrel. Pretty much any type of valve will work, generic sprinkler, washing machine, home-rolled piston ... all will work fine.igpay wrote:... I want distance and accuracy over ROF and I don't care if my gun is one shot, or if it has easy loading capabilities like a magazine or a BB selector. so please, Can someone tell me which type of valve will give me distance and accuracy(if one valve is even better for those things than the other) or explain to me how what jimmy said could help me.
Thanks.
True, but a gun really has two accuracies; (1) fired from a solid mounting where you are looking only at the accuracy of the gun itself and (2) fired as it will be fired in actual use.psycix wrote:The barrel is important, but...
Assuming he is holding the gun in his hands, isnt the accuracy then also affected by the ergonomy of holding the gun and triggering it?
I think that if you want accuracy you should focus on that too, not just the barrel.
An easy one-finger triggering mechanism will surely improve your accuracy then when you slam open a ballvalve.
