So Yeah
I was kinda unhappy with the G-20R... It was cool but it lacked the consistency I wanted from it, this was largely in part due to the games inability to handle a cannon firing at the rate I needed. I took a step back and had a realization... Not all Rotary cannons fire at 6000rpm, specifically the tri-barrel configuration. This guy shoots at a much more modest 2000 rpm BUT it is a 30mm rather than a 20mm. The cannon also now rotates much faster giving off a nicer affect. I have also integrated a spread feature so the gun isn't pinpoint accurate but rather has a wide spread at far ranges. Due to the lower fire rate requirements this version also doesn't freak out in slo-mo. I also added (with the help of YourWife a spin up feature of which delays the firing of the cannon allowing time for the barrels to spin up. Overall this is a much better and more refined rotary cannon when compared to its predecessor.

It is to simulate spool up, also you will need to make your own reticle, or you could just slap a gun part on and use the stock reticle @ChiChiWerx
The setup and activation is a little strange, it doesn’t appear to be a selectable weapon and no aiming reticle appears, which I think is throwing off players (see comments), but it does work. Simply select air to ground or air to air, press on the “0x G-30R”, which will highlight and press fire. You need to guess where the first rounds will go without the aiming reticle, which appears only while firing. Very effective, though.
@ChiChiWerx it has 30 0 delay cannons in it

@Planebuilder2123 you did? Where is it?
@ChiChiWerx hey i made a rotary cannon, is it realistic? I can't find a way to convert the seconds in-between each round and rps
Hey i promise i will credit.. i have no idea how to make these so i am gonna use yours.
Seems you aren't very active at the moment. I'm going to upload my gunpod, i'll make sure to credit you and this post. Tell me if you want me to take it down, i'm happy to do so
@Thecatbaron Can I use the variable spread rotators in a gun i'm making? I'll link this post and credit you
@Thecatbaron I am making a new fighter aircraft, would I be able to use this weapon in the creation and tag you in the trailer or where ever you want to be tagged?
Yeah like a rev up @DanDaFreakinMan
I'ma just yoink the gun out
Brrrt! but better
I do like how it delayed at the start. Kinda like it simulating a start up
You do realize that this kind of behavior can get you banned right? @MrACEpilot
np! @ReaperSpitz
@Thecatbaron ok thx
Well if you want to give it some more food (lead) the actual cannons are tiny and right in front of the barrels, Kinda hard to click on em tho @ReaperSpitz
@Thecatbaron 😂😅 unfortunately no
is 500 rounds not enough for you? @ReaperSpitz
It's nice and all... But why so little ammo??
@MrACEpilot Watch yo profanity
It is normal! You literally fire it like any other cannon aside from the spin up. Maybe you should read the instructions next time genius @MrACEpilot
Read the pinned comment, You have to select the cannon in the weapons menu and press and hold the fire button, The ammo counter only shows zero due to the spin up code I used, this is not rocket science!!! @MrACEpilot
You know what time it is
