Building the BATTLE TRUCK..

[TruckBasher]

Hahaha 1.2million Volts ...i think the one more in danger are the RC drivers that might get hit by the tazer or stun gun

I may sound crazy but i think the tazer nor stun gun wont have any effect on an RC build unless you hit the wiring or ESC heatsink or the motor. For the small current to take effect the 2 contact must have a full short or closed circuit. I maybe wrong though...I just remembered mythbusters

Technically, with dry air having a dielectric constant of 1000V/mm, you could completely electricute a truck just by getting the electrodes on either side of it.

But, by the looks of the design of that stun gun, it is most likely just two "smaller" 600KV coils; one at either end. The way it is setup you would never have a 1.2MV potential generated, only two separate 600KV potentials. That's why in the demo pictures on their site you see two little arcs and not one HUGE arc. You could work around this "design flaw" by taking one terminal from either end (one + and one -) and relocating them to the opposite side, respectively. This would allow the unit to develop the FULL 600KV potential of each coil before it fired, and would make two individual arcs across the stun gun terminals. Have fun!!!!

just thought it sounded ironic.

well it's just that i was expecting the flamethrower to look stronger and throw the flame further. i guess i was just a little dissapointed.

@TDC: good to know you haven't crossed into the realm of complete stupidity and you're not going to put a real Mac 11 on the truck. but even tho it's airsoft, do u need another gun on Project Overkill

but it is Project Overkill, so you might as well add it.
