OK the question is how much pressure can a 1.25Ltr bottle of pop take before it goes, well POP!!

The system I'm using on the walker is very low pressure (sub 50psi) so to save weight and increase buffer storage I'm doing tests.
PLEASE NOTE
I would not advise anyone doing this, without experience with safely using compressed gas!
Hi just a video on the test out a 1/2" valve for the weapon! and Giles for grip I'm going to see how it goes, but there are always bike tyres.
Three Dr Peppers! that should spice things up a bit!!!
Please don't be fooled by this I am designing probably the most powerful Featherweight axe/sword robot ever made. the bottles 2Ltrs each are connected by 22mm diameter copper tube, the flow rate through the proposed valve means the sword will work at maximum efficiency through out it's travel.
Ah but I've said too much!!!!!

Between 400 & 600psi typically. Depends a lot on temperature and type of bottle. The smooth walled bottles perform better than faceted (like coke bottles).Originally Posted by craig_colliass
When they blow, they make a loud bang - but the shrapnel is so light and encounters so much aerodynamic drag that it doesn't present much danger of injury. I still wouldn't want to be next to it.
I used to have access to dry-ice. Much fun putting dry ice in a bottle, screw the cap on and wait for the bang! The figures above were obtained using a pressure gauge on the bottle.

No size or weight limitations start up acceleration ramp can be 20seconds or more! and no breaking required. those seem a little bit on the big side for a gyro are they used in feathers or Beetle?
