F-22 vs. Coilgun


Recommended Posts

Why the heck are they using those crappy Tamiya plugs on their batteries? Get some Deans connectors man! And if they power it with a high current 11.1 Lipo battery, they could have larger storage capacity and potentially faster coil charge rates. Nice gun though!

So, was that an Italeri F-22 they killed or an Academy one? :)

All I could think was "He hates cans!! Stay away from the cans!!"

I'm guessing that was the Academy body by the rear fuselage assembly. Definitely not Hasegawa--there wasn't any visible raised surface detail... :pray:

Their not, look again.

Okay, maybe it isn't but it still looks like some sort of spade connector plug. A slide connector type tends to work a little better in higher voltage applications without as much electrical resistance. A 3 cell 2000mah lipo would potentially take up less space though (meaning one with more milliamp hours could be used in the same battery compartment).
