My 2k1 Dark Angel w/ Pred II board!

[nouseforaname]

well I just got my gun back from TAG getting the Predator II board upgrade. I havent even aired it up but Im in such a good mood I thought Id take some pics and share my joy with you folks!

What was added since the last time was ...

- Pred II board w/ break beam eyes
- AKA sidewinder reg
- CCM clamping no-rise feedneck

Disregard the no macroline or fitting, Im looking allover my room to find some extras

Well here are the pics!!

How do you get the breach to open with the no-rise?

[Sinistarr]

Just wait till you shoot it.. It was sweet! :shooting: :headbang:

[nouseforaname]

How do you get the breach to open with the no-rise?

the bad thiing is that you cant so Im rethinking getting a midrise instead.

sneakyhacker - ;)

[nouseforaname]

Sinistarr - did you get to personally shoot it? Im itching to!!!

[evan123]

How much for predator? how much for the gun?

[nouseforaname]

I believe it was 350 for the pred2 upgrade and 425 or so for the gun ... around 775 for an awesome gun :clap:

I like the green color. It makes my champagne IR3 look so bland. Let me know how the pred board works. I've been toying around with the idea to get it installed on my angel.

[SCpoloRicker]

I too have a Pred board Angel. Mines a 2k3 LE, dust black.

TAG rules!!

[nouseforaname]

well i just aired it up today, at first I couldnt get it to cycle so I called up Bob from TAG and he walked me through some common problems. Turns out when I was fooling aroudn with the board I put the dwell setting at 1 so that had to be turned back up ... woops! ... I must say that Bob is a great guy, he was more concerned that he sent me back a broken gun than he was with just getting off the phone. THANKS AGAIN BOB AND EVERYONE AT TAG!!!!

a video possably tomorrow if my friend with the camera is off from work

question

with the internals of the LCD and the old boards being capped at 20... does this pred shoot over 20bps?

also, that isnt an led predator screen is it? is it a sticker or whats the story on that?

reason i ask is when TAG first introduced the predator, the original gun had a tight led display but they havent been putting it in guns, or so i thought

[TraXeR]

You make me want an Angel...

..Damn you.



Sidenote: Why would the breech not open because of a no rise? I barely know anything about Angels.

[Cliffio]

angels have a roto breech, open from right to left, the feedneck is too low and will now allow the breech to rotate open

see how the breech is open to the left side?

[TraXeR]

I knew about the rotobreech, but I didn't realize the width of the feedneck was too wide for it to open, never thought of that. Thanks for the info Cliffio.

In answer to the BPS question ... You control the bps cap with the eyes off ... eyes on its unlimited I believe ... Ive heard dryfire clips of 40 and 60 bps tho

I believe LCD's start reaching their physical limitations around 25-28bps... can't remember the exact number or where I read it from though. In either case, it'll be faster than you can pull.

[Cliffio]

its not faster than you can pull if you've got all that crazy afa code stuff on

im sure the lcd internals are limited at a fairly lower number compared to say, the speed

[FallNAngel]

its not faster than you can pull if you've got all that crazy afa code stuff on

Hmm... let's see, you'll be pulling oh... say 13 and it'll be shooting say... 18 ... How is the gun *not* shooting faster than you're pulling?

[Cliffio]

bounce and ramp

[evan123]

Cliff- That is a decal in the window. There is an LED in the back of the frame for all the modes and ramping modes which exceeds 20. So yes it shoots faster then 20.

[Cliffio]

edit-FallNangel-i was talking about the 25-28, and, now reading back over it, it makes no sense, anyways, i thought you were saying 25-28 is faster than anyone can pull the trigger, i was saying with the bounce and ramp, those rates of fire are accessable, anyway, i have no idea....late
