Cyclone Mine

I Found this on a site looks Really cool what do you think
I had the rear end of a small / medium size RC car. I lopped off one wheel and made a "cup" out of PVC pieces. I mounted it to the wheel and made it water tight with a couple layers of good epoxy resin. I then drilled and tapped the sides and added the 2 plastic "spouts". I'll see how well they work. If I'm not getting enough paint out if the 1/8" holes then I might add two more or get slightly bigger ones. I am going for a sprinkler effect.
The last step was simply making the base for it to stand straight up. I haven't tested it with liquid yet, but running it dry on a 6v or 9.6v is quite impressive. The "cup" should hold 3/4 to 1 cup of liquid paint. Another cool thing about this unit is that it even still has the High / Low speed selector switch in the gear box. My plan is to attach a 9.6v battery pack and use the Remote Detonator 2 to set it off. Obviously I'll add some paint / camo to disguise it but I wanted people to be able to see the construction.

Yeah cause it is illegal to pass on good information and good ideas.(said with sarcasm)

Good idea, always pass on useful information weather it's your idea or not if it's a good one it should be passed on.
