Not sure if this is the correct area to post this question, but I
couldn't find a better, so here goes. I hae read the specs on the
C3 and was wondering how much of an effect will altitude be on this
gun. A typical altitude I play at is 8000 - 10000ft. I
understand the small gas engine mechanics, so Im wondering what would
be the max velocity of the gun at these high altitudes compared to sea
level?

Given that you can adjust the fuel mix, I would be surprised if there would be any effect (other than having to adjust the fuel mix). I do not have any actual evidence of this, however. Welcome to the forum. |

From my understanding, when you go up in altitude you have less oxygen
to burn, thus you thin the fuel mixture so that you still have a
complete burn and are not wasting fuel. When this is the case you
are using less fuel but are not producing the same amount of
pressure. The question would be, in this gun what is the limiting
factor, fuel or air?
