I know I'm off topic, but here's what I had in mind for the Titan. For starters, I'll go with a 2S LiPo pack. I want to keep it below 130 FPS, so a big 2S is perfect. For flywheel motors, either Fang ReVamps or Hyperions. Even though I could probably get away with a 20 amp microswitch, I'll probably use a MOSFET for switching the motors.

From what I can tell, the barrel spins at a pretty decent rate. If I just leave the stock motors, I'm going to get a 20% increase in speed just by going to 2S. So I don't forsee a need to do anything with the barrel.

What I haven't figured out is the flywheel cage and the pusher. The stock cage looks pretty flimsy. I haven't found any 3D cages yet, which surprises me considering every serious modder wants to turn their Titan into a minigun. But patience is a virtue. Worst case I can epoxy weld some additional plastic supports to the existing cage and give it some extra strength.

From the pictures, it looks like the Titan has a simple conveyor style pusher. Upgrading the motor is all it will take to increase the ROF. The wiki page says it fires "a bit slower" than the HyperFire, which fires ≈6 DPS. Imma call BS on that. I timed Coop's Titan video and calculated 2.85 DPS. So "slightly slower" might be a lie stretch.

My point is, simply upgrading to an RM2 will increase the ROF by 50%. If you're looking for really fast rates of fire, an Honey Badger will increase the ROF to over 6 DPS. And an M4U should increase the ROF to over 9 DPS.

BTW, while researching the data I used in this post, I encountered a huge amount of misinformation on the web, specifically in the NIC. There are a LOT of Nerfers that don't understand physics, electronics, or math.

When things don't add up, do the math yourself. You'll immediately spot the idiots and liars  uninformed.
