That is a valid point - I will attache a 2m long orange band on the tail fin - to slow down velocity and make it also very visual for retrival.
But the arch is high and we are shooting it over the woods - so a lot of deflection ( trees - brenches ) which will interfear with the decend trajectory.. and final impact....
for long range this will do ( as we can see 300 to 400 feet in high arch and the whistle audible.....
We also can determine exit velocity by how deep we put the Nerf in the Barrel.... - like the first video - just beeing pushed an inch - and she flies still 150 to 200 feet but with much less velocity and range...
but here is also another added safety to it. ( I am thankfull for all them hints and triggers )
At the briefing will this be clearly stated - that we have mortars for long range ( Nerf or similar ) fire.
you will hear a loud bang followed by the whistling of the incoming projectile... duc and cover the head with arms ( at this point I will have a show case trooper performing the action infront of the audience. )
the BB`s themself rain only down with its natural free fall velocity according to their weight - it tried it yesterday... totaly harmles but covers a good big patch - this is used for short range camp defense.... high arch - low range but good shrappnel coverage - like a tempered grenade would do - exploding in flight over ground... for maximum infantry effect.
keep them thoughts coming - this is very good points guys.
thanks a lot for the help
