Re: What wheel to use for the flywheel

Space and weight allowing, more massive flywheels can be more easily regulated using PID. Through conservation of momentum, a large mass flywheel will transfer less of its momentum to the fuel than a less massive flywheel for each shot. It will take longer to reach optimal shooting angular velocity, but will maintain that angular velocity much more easily. If it's possible you may look into that in addition to different wheel surfaces
