    We have battled the Weather and assorts but we fired it till it broke haha, fires a good 250m+ every time but we can add more weight once fixed and get more power with some fine tuning. CAN we Ever fire the CAR???? Thanks again to Xbox Game Pass for PC for sponsoring this video!

  • @koitorob
    @koitorob 3 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    Actually Colin, they were as inaccurate 'back then' as they are now. The builders were just as embarrased when they missed things and, because it so often upset the king so much that he'd have the operator's head chopped orf, they decided it would be safer (for them) if they aimed at larger targets. Such as castles...
    That's the real reason why they became known as a siege weapon, purely because it allowed those charged with aiming them living longer because they didn't miss their target.
    Not a lotta people know that!

    A decent way to improve accuracy would be to add a rotating track for the payload and sling to follow, it would also allow for better aiming without moving the whole trebuchet, though a track isn't needed for aiming, just slide the end of the sling and the payload to the left or right before launch, all a track would do is make that more consistent

    Very fun. I have a guess as to why your trebuchet was inaccurate: ground friction of the sling. You need to fit the sling to a trough to keep it straight and for a smooth action, or have a shorter sling that rests on the ground and doesnt travel before launch.

    A guide rail where the projectile sits could probably help with accuracy.
