Plain and simple, I am not giving advice to anyone as I haven't produced this for myself yet so I can't say how it will turn out. However, I still believe that my theory will make for hours of great fun.
I intend to build myself a 2 Seater Go-Kart, however I need to make this more fun so I decided I need to add a pneumatic potato rockets. Im not sure of the legalities of this either so I may not actually make it unless I found out I can.
This is the basics of it:
The rotation system, like some tanks in the world wars is similar to a manual screw driver.
The Vertical aim is just a case of pushing the arm up and down.
This is all on a swivel.
If I actually make this I'll report on success and failures ASAP.
If you wish to risk it develop on my idea. (Probly been done times before but I wanted to re hash it). Anyone does it you can email me on chris_overlord@hotmail.com
Sorry if this was useless to you.[/quote] |

Sounds like fun...and potato guns are legal in the US. So are go-carts, as long as you don't take them on any roadway.
As far as your design, a lot of this has been done, mainly for paintball. Here is a link with tank tips that you may can incorporate into your design.
Good luck and be sure to show us pics.
