Maplins parts list for gblasters rapidfire mod

[haze]

Please help me, i want to do gblasters rapid fire mod, but im not sure what components to get as on maplins site there are different types of resistors, different voltage capacitors and so on. please could someone guide me to what i need and maybe give me part numbers. Sorry if i sound newbish but i really am a newb But i can solder.

there part numbers

Thanks would the 1.0 uF Electrolytic Capacitor you said be alright because it is 63v and it looks different to the one in the guide also what wire should i use?

Yes that one is fine, it looks different but it still functions exactly the same. best wire to use is 30g Kynar wire becuase it very thin.

yes it will work i used it and it works great.

KYNAR WIRE 30

Thanks again, sorry to be a nuisance what is the part number for the 0.1 uf polyester capacitor? and whats the difference between a polyester capacitor and Electrolytic Capacitor.

I probably look really stupid asking alll these questions.

sorry list updated

i dont know the diffrence so some else who bothers to see this mite know

[GBlaster]

Honestly, I've used different types of capacitors and they all have worked so far. Just make sure the uF value is right, and try to stay away from polarized capacitors.

hey GBlaster is there any way to make the RF shoot faster ?

[GBlaster]

change the resistor value of r2. The lower the resistance, the faster it shoots.
