BTW it sounds bad ass to loud in my small hackerspace!

The air cylinder can't keep up with rof. Increasing pressure on the other side of it will help but still 50ms is a bit too fast

Jepp i notice that!
Just tried 50 and 25ms! Maybe 100 or more will do!
But if i ad a 5 way valve to control the cylinder so it cycle at the maximum extension and minimum then i can find out how fast it can shoot!
But for now i think i will do the magazine in front of the left T, a bit easier to make something when i dont have the Solenoids.

Tried 75ms and i think the cylinder handled it well:P

More building to come:P

Okej

Some progres today! have redesign the cylider niples and got ride of the rear mounted T!
I put it in front and have made hole for the BB´s!
So now i put the T in front of the air inlet T, much easier!
The hop up rubber in place just need to make a new nipple from the air tank (buffer tank),
And make a piston for the breech!

Will post some pic´s later and video!

Think the magazine will be the hard part!

Any tips to make a quick coupling for the mag?

Peace
