Bought a proper co2 cylinder now! currently setting up the regulator on it..

What cylinder did u use in your bot? dosnt look branded , is it self made?

I just bought a scuba diving cylinder weighing 1.5kg, I have used a pneumatic regulator like this https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/i...s_ys8EoijQsv0A

The problem is , I think the regulator freezes inside when i turn the gas flow on. what is the solution to this?

Thanks

QEV Question... I have been watching some videos and is the function of a QEV entirely dependant on pressure so it functions automatically?

Also, its this suitable as a dump valve? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-4-PT-Mal...item2c7ab4335a

I am guessing if you are putting the dump valve between the buffer and main tanks you only need one as both can vent via the same port?

It will be difficult to understand what's in the system and how it works from a photo, a schematic is better... There are other ways to set up a low pressure system which may be simpler. This is how mine is set up...

For this to work you need two ports on the same side of the ram do you not? This isn't possible without adding a splitter to the port on the ram. Why would you bother?

was that question for me?
other than that, is it possible to use the small co2 cartridge refills (40g)-50g as buffer tank?

The dump should be on the buffer. On the paint ball bottle I'm using as a buffer the dump valve can be connected on the bottle fitting where the burst disk is. (Have a look at the first photos on this thread at pg1)

Liftoff, can you tell me where I could find full pressure valve and cylinder?

What does the burst disc look like? I can identify most of the parts but not the burst disc.

it looks like a small copper circle sheet which fits inside this https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/i...1OA8jpcfFgo-9C
