Mark II Results - Starting PositionHow does the performance depend on the projectile's starting position? Projectile's Starting PositionThe exit speed is quite sensitive to the projectile's precise starting position. It takes only a few millimeters further in or out to gain or loose significant speed. This graph shows the measured speed compared to how far the projectile was inserted into the coil.
ConclusionsA projectile's starting position must tuned to be within a 2mm range to achieve optimum results. |
