    well since this is just hypothetical anyways....
    dont really have to start with a warp at all....er meaning the feeding part...the electro parts i guess who be a must have.
    i was thinking just a simple revy shell with impeller(bottom half)cut at both ends for ball to enter from both sides...cutting it across would put heavy weight on the impeller to work properly.
    and at the bottom of the revvy would be the mechanisim to turn a flexable cork screw. pushing would be a no-no just because of the distance and the problem with running out of paint and balls just stuck in the tube. with the corkscrew method..it would run the backpack dry.
    just on motor strong enough to push, electro sensitive enough not to crush.
    as for being heavy..shoot if a guy can carry a 10/15 pack and a 114cu tank....er ya
    anyways...bed time already

    and its not a dual tube per-say...its a 1 1/2 tube!

      ummmmmmmm wouldnt all that paint and warps be a bit heavy. In a paintball tank though itd be better.

        Granted it'd be mainly for scenario use, but its definitely feasible. Not cheap, but feasible.

        As for weight, people carry 16 pods onto the field. Don't tell me this would be too heavy.

        If you used a piece of PVC pipe, the bottom half of a halo feeding into a warp, some sort of anti-kink, and another warp on the gun, I think it's possible.

        You'd have to get the backpack warp to intellifeed with the gun, by having a long wire running back down the feed tube. It'd also need more power than 9/12 volts. You'd prolly need an 18V capable warp.

        A "push plate" with a soft spring on the inside, ala the Q-Loader, would keep the balls from bouncing around. A round piece of metal or plastic, maybe with a thin piece of neoprene glued to it, and a really big soft spring. It doesn't need to push the balls, just keep them from bouncing up.

        Also, you could stick a tank next to it, and just wrap the remote hose around the feed hose for the paint. Slap some duct tape (or that camo tape) on there and it'd be a little more structurally sound than a plain warp hose.

        Here's a diagram, if I had the money and/or parts I might build one, but I don't.

          Well the white of the PVC didn't stand out because I forgot to save it as a GIF, but just imagine its there :)
