Seeing videos of people converting their nerf rivals I had to give one a shot. Since C and D batteries are so passe I first replaced its 6 C cells with 3 8000mah lithiums which allows this thing to spit out 12 rounds in well under a second. I modified the trigger to be a two stage trigger pull half way to spin up the flywheels and a high power ducted fan for the feed tube, wait a quarter second then pull all the way to open the gate and unleash nerf hell. When this bad boy spins up you know its time to duck and cover. The balls also dont feel very good when you get hit so WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES.
I havent spent enough time to work out the feed issues with the backpack. At present Im thinking some sort of cork screw to prevent clogs. A project for later...
I decided to paint it with a kryptek style staying with light blue grays or silvers. Other than the backpack clogging issues, and that there is no reasonable way to play with others with this, I am quite proud of this bad boy. Next I need to develop a filtered vacuum cleaner to pick up the hundreds of balls this baby can fire in a minute.
