• Aiming to make an accurate, high-performing but truly game-safe finned missile that can be fired from/out of pretty much anything... (no pressure 😅)

FERRET missiles: no longer just spigot and barrel-launchable, but now in-line mag/clip or RSCB-able.
• Previous Reddit post showing spigot-launching and pain-test: / airzones_narfxbz_spexb...
• Usual expanded-tank Marshmallow Extreme Blaster, Air Hawk Pro compressor, 20psi (footage has been sped up while compressor operates...)
• Barrel needs tweaking to tighten up accuracy, but it works!
• The in-line clip actually works better than launching from a shell as the fins can be stored in the mag-tube in a slightly unfurled state - meaning they're not stored compressed hard to the body foam and should more quickly and consistently spring back into position to impart spin.
