    Revolution Tripod Shells

    The Revolution Tripod loader had a neat design that was basically 2 parts
    - bottom portion - feedneck, motor, battery housing
    - top portion - shells that held an impeller that fit in place with the motor

    theres 2 screws holding the top and bottom portion together. Top shell can come apart like a normal Revy and you could probably remove the impeller

    has anyone ever designed a replacement top shell for this? Could get a little creative with it. Not sure how mass produced these were, if there are a lot out there in the wild

    I have one with both top shells. It works just as well as a normal x board 12v revvy. It was a neat concept. I think the Halo was just coming on the scene back then, and people were jumping on that bandwagon. The other factor is that the large shell is ginormous. I think it's 300 rounds, but it really is huge on top of the gun.

      They made a low capacity (100), regular (200) and high capacity (300)

      Very short lived design that got nuked by force fed hoppers

        I used the 300rd version to load my Qloader pods.

          Not a terrible concept for walkon play, I really like them.

          Goofy as all hell, but the Mojo does basically the dame thing with pump sized shells
