Looks like these guys could do with the increased rate of fire of a strafer to help bring the r/c boys down remarkable how resilient the aircraft are though.

This is pretty cool. I wish they had something like this around where I lived...

Hmm, I wonder what a golf ball would do

I reckon that's in Japan.
Imagine a "Flack Round", say a bunger with bb's wrapped around it with a fuse that you cut for different times shot out of a pneumatic. That may do well, though it would be a bizitch to calibrate.
They should have put miniature strafers on the R/C Aircraft o fight back
. With extremely small chambers with pressures of up to 900psi

Yeah, there you go, Redcoat! That's always something I've wanted to do: equip a model plane with a bb gun and go straifing! Say, maybe it could be one of those aircraft that run on pressurized air! (You'd need a composite tank though, to hold that much psi.)

hey I've heard of guys on this fourm who do this and I remember that the cheap foam planes can take a heck of a beating

That'd be pretty cool, but a pain to do. You also have to consider the recoil... But if it was equipped with Jack's pen shooter thing...Well...

My vortex's have virtually no recoil due to the light projectile weight.
but on a aircraft I could imagine it would be alot more susceptible to the (light) recoil.

Also mounting a strafer on i would be relatively hard aerodynamically. Plus, I think the plane would have to go slower, but it would give those Airsofters an embuggerance.

I don't think this is very relevant but I found something that might work for mini pocket sized bbmgs it this 12 gram CO2 device for unloading muzzle loader rifles

its similiar to a tire inflater, I have one for my muzzie.

Ah yes, I think I know what he means. That's doable to put on an R/C Aircraft.
