In this section, we will address the theory and calculations related to a BB pellet launched from an airsoft gun.
- Airsoft Ballistics
- The trajectory of a BB pellet launched from an airsoft gun is determined by the initial velocity, angle, and rotation. In this article, we formulate the equations of motion for the BB pellet, taking into consideration gravity, air resistance, the Magnus force and the decay of rotation, and present the derivation process, approximate solutions and numerical solutions.
- Airsoft Ballistics for PC Application
- We are releasing an application and its source code that numerically solves the equations of motion for a BB pellet launched from an airsoft gun, under the MIT License.
