The thought has crossed my mind. High pressure pnuematics is actually quite simple.
The Burkert 5404 valve is quite large but could be sqeezed into a Hobbyweight. I would have to find a local guy to pressure test and certify the system, but it could be done.
I would probably be more inclined to try a different style of robot for interest sake. _________________ So even the rain that falls isn't actually going to fill our dams and our river systems
