When i opened up the Titan i saw two pieces of vinyl coming out of the pump. One leads to the Titan airtank and the other leads to where the hornet connects. Since i don't like the way the Titan and Hornet connect i decided to connect the extra piece of vinyl to a 2K. I have string from the second trigger to pull the firing pin of the 2K but it stretched so the firing pin doesn't pull. I guess i will just hook up the firing pin with a keyring. When i shoot the 2K the Titan still has air, but when i fire the Titan the 2K loses its air. I can fix this by gluing an STS valve to the vinyl on its way to the 2K so the air cannot come back to the Titan airtank. I am going to do a sch.80 barrel on the Titan. I haven't done a range test but the 2K should have regular 2K ranges.
EDIT: I realized the 2K turret is aimed a bit low. Don't worry, I'll fix it.

Hey I have been working on the same concept for the past 3 months. I had the same problem with you so heres what i did. I took the orange piece out of the hornet that pressses up against the titen to let air in. I put sum vinal tubbing into it and atached it to a 2k tank, so when i want to fill up the tank i press the airtank back to make a seal and it will fill when i pump the titen. To keep the air in the tank i cut the vinal tubbing in half and inbetween it i put a fishtank check valve which will not let the air out of the tank. Hope this is not to confuesing

That's probably the most practical inegration I have yet to see. Imagine a perfect loser/trooper combo then look at that. Amazing, southpaw I must tip my hat to you.

That has to be the most obvious thing you could do with a Titan, and I never saw it happening. It's a great idea, and you did a great job. I love how you ever hooked up the AT2k's trigger pin and tank to the Titan itself.

The only thing to consider is whether or not the AT2k is a better blaster to have down there, instead of the Hornet. I don't know Hornet ranges, but I thought it was 6 shots of about 80'. The AT2k has 4 shots, and if modded properly, you can get 90'-113'.

Looks good.

I get it. You are basically using the a check valve to let air come into the 2K but not let it out. I am going to do this with a STS check valve.

You, sir, have made the best integrations I have seen in along time. (no offense to anyone else)

[Chessler]

You really made a good job there, it's awesome !

This wasn't very hard to do. I opened it up one day, had the idea later that night, and did the mod in about half an hour the next day. I guess i get some of my ideas by just brainstorming and thinking of ways to improve things that aren't helpful. I put a sch.80 barrel in the Titan original barrel. It shoots the missile 80ft. The darts don't go very far probably because they are pretty loose in the sch.80. Uriel says i should use longer darts for it. I like shotgunning with five darts better than a single shot anyway.
EDIT: I hooked up the STS check valve to the 2K and now either valve can fire without draining the other valve's air.

It's smaller. *shrug*

[Jangadance]

No duh!

And it's got better range and worse ROF... it just depends on what purpose you'd like your 'secondary' weapon down there to serve. Personally, if I have an uber-cannon on top, I'd like a quick-firing weapon to back me up slung below. But that's just me.

I would put some sort of housing around the AT guts. Just so they don't get banged up or so.
