That's one of the reasons I want to build the version with the Milan tubes. That way, the paintball hopper doesn't need to be inside a turret. It can be external, on top of the guns. My tentative plan is to mount two BT SA-17 paintball pistols ( http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=BT+SA+17+Paintball+Pistol&FORM=HDRSC2 ). I'll cut down the grip and use a solenoid to trigger them. I will probably use my own hopper instead of the 10 round magazine that they come with. Each gun claims 20+ shots from it's internal 12g CO2 cartridge, so there's my 40 shots. Yes, I'll be changing a lot of cartridges but we don't battle that often and shoot that much paint when do, so I don't think the cost will be so bad. I also hope that having guns offset from the tank center line will help resolve those nose-to-nose standoffs in my favor :) - Doug

Part of the trade-off of building really small vehicles is the chore of fitting everything into really small spaces. -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
