Wow nice air cannon but I really don't think that is going 600 mph maybe 200. How'd you freeze a soda can without it exploding.

[regolithe]

we clocked a tennis ball at 550 mph at 40 psi. this was a frozen soda can (opened, filled with water, then frozen). The tank was at 120 psi on this shot. 600 mph is not an unrealistic figure.

@regolithe nice, what did you use to measure the speed?

[regolithe]

@joostan1 I shot a tennis ball over a measured range, and timed the flight of the ball. I went conservative on each figure, just to make sure that I was not overestimating the actual ball speed. My measurements were that the tennis ball took 0.27 seconds to travel 220 feet. So, I rounded up to 0.3 seconds and rounded down to 200 feet. that works out to be 666 feet per second. I rounded that figure down to 600 feet per second, which works out to be 2,160,000 feet per hour, or approx. 409 MPH

[regolithe]

@joostan1 (pt. 2) assuming those figures were all accurate, without rounding down to be conservative, it works out to be 555 mph.

you should put justin beibers head in front of that instead of the cinder block lol

[dragonmaster888888]

When I saw it destroy that cinder block I said out loud to myself, "HOLY. CRAP."

nice. you need a better/quicker operating air valve. you could've shot that thing another 3 or 4 times easy on the air in the tank.
