Thank you for being constructive..

The main is Fired by a QEV triggered by an Electric Solenoid.

The actuators will be triggerd by additional Solenoids, i would suspect. but yes everything electro pneumatic..

1. Instant
2. how ever long it takes an object to travel 8 inches. from 0 velocity.
3. as soon as 2 is fully extended.

Sound like a cool project, I would suggest studying up on building simple micro controllers.

Also, what kind of solinoid are you using to acuate that QEV? Im very interested in that. (i cannon find a decent sized cheap one anywhere.
