Re: 1212 pneumatic catapult prototype

Wow, impressive, thanks for sharing. Question regarding the valve you used. We have been using a Festo VPLE18-M5H-4/2 - 1/4 with a 12" stroke, 0.75" bore BIMBA cylinder. We didn't get the launch distance we were expecting and so tried putting two of these valves in parallel, and also using 3 large pneumatic capacitors and keeping the pneumatic lines as short as possible. Any advice based on your successful launch? Thanks!
