Yes I have seen it. It is a nice gun but hardly worth making a huge, bulky power pack for. It would kinda defeat the purpose of the P-90 no? The real M-134 Vulcan has one so making one would only make it more practical and realistic. But I have to say that is a piece of art though. :D

Also

I found the hose and regulator that I am going to use today.

The hose is a 1/4 in., 35ft polyeurethane hose. It is 300psi rated.

The pressure regulator is a mini regulator.
Port Size: 1/4" NPT female inlet, outlet & (2) 1/8" NPT gauge ports
Pressure Range: 5-125 PSIG
Flow Capacity: 13 SCFM (125 PSIG Supply, 100 PSIG Outlet)
Maximum Supply Pressure: 250 PSIG
Operating Temperature Range: 0 to 150 F
Body/Knob: Glass-reinforced composite/acetal resin
Diaphragm/Seals: Buna-N
Mounting: In-line plumbing, panel mount, wall mount
Weight: 0.25 pounds

If you know of any problems I will encounter please post.

I am trying to find a set up for my inline that uses paintball CO2 tanks. If you have a setup like this, please let me know what parts you use to connect the tanks, regs, and blowguns.

370 cubic inches per second isn't exactly a burst disk valve, but I don't know if it'll be enough for this design. Remember that the 370ci/s is likely at SATP, so only 22ci of 250 psi air in one second - fairly slow really, for what you're trying to do with it. My N<sub>2</sub> reg used to have a massive flow rate, but it's got blocked somewhere now, and is fairly slow.

That sucks. LOL I'll bet someday it will come unplugged and shoot whatever it is through some drywall. :lol:

If anyone knows how choam8 set his up or if someone could give me recommendations on how to redesign the attachment it would be much appreciated.
His design used fake rotating barrels for looks only, mechanically it was simply a cloud strafer.

Your design's looking well so far, good luck with completing it :)

Well the air won't be going from the regulator to the vortex block. It will actually go in this order: from the compressor -> regulator-> air tanks -> gun.

Sorry. It's just that I haven't gotten any real responses when I tried that before, and this was an active thread, with someone who could solve my problem by explaining their gun. I shoulda PMed him.

It's O-K (for now) just be sure to pm the person who you think could help you if you don't want to post a topic.

That is the biggest signature I've seen yet. :shock:

Anyway, can someone do some number crunching for me? I need to find out how long it will take to fill the air pack I'm going to eventually make.

Measurements
Tank I.D.= 4"
Tank Length= 24"
Tank Quantity= x2
PSI= 40 & 90
Max Flow Rate=.7CFM

In return I will let you have a seat of power in my new world order. Muahh ahh ahh! :twisted:
