Ill fix it all up later, but Im pretty sure that you can rig up a system with 2 canisters whereby if the gas is released into a finite space from both at the same time through a valve, it doubles up the pressure because theres nothing else it can do. I seem to recall reading thats why Terrorhurtz got its pressure from lots of smaller canisters rather than fewer larger ones.
Now imagine how long youd have been there if Id tried to enter slammer, lol.
I cant wait to see all the faults aaron finds with D-J!
Actually he wont because as I said its the version which you helped me with.
Alex: CO2 is a ~750PSI regardless of if you have 1g or 5kg of it... Adding multiple tanks just gives you more gas to use, not pressure. The only time the pressure changes is if you change the temperature.
Kody: Your robot is only 150mm tall while your motors are 200mm tall... Besides that, the spirit behind this tournament is to get away from the super mega transformers in disguise type robots and back to a more sensible designs. Either choose a different bot, or look at different drive motors and replacing all that hardox with something like Titanium or Aluminium. The weapon on the robot is perfectly fine. Need information on the batteries though. powered by NiMH cells could mean it runs on 50mAh 1.2v Cells that wouldnt drive an antweight for 3mins.
Alex: Forgot one thing in the last post, Terrorhurtz runs regulated pressure on the weapon from between 90PSI and 150PSI...

Yes there is, stay in the cannisters. when pressure equalizes over the enitire system gas will stay exactly where it is. 1 gas bottle or 6 gas bottle wont make a bit of difference in pressure.
I blame Blaise Pascal for this. Just like I blame Isaac Newton for inventing gravity. :)
