A railgun is a type of mass driver. It contains a pair of rails to accelerate a conductor projectile to a high velocity. This project is a design of a toy level railgun. We'd like to make it easy to implement, so people can build it as a hobby project.
NOTE: Please turn on git LFS when cloning this project.
The principle of our design, and a detailed introduction of subsystems are in Design
A railgun is operated by LETHALLY high voltage and current. If you don't have enough knowledge and experiences on high voltage electric, please keep extreme cautions on insulation.
- Circuit folder is the electric design of the system. The files can be open by KiCad
- Doc folder contains some documents
