They are going to make these boards if there are enough orders, it is uncapped, zero bounce, comes with eyes, and you wont need a bulky battery, just wondering what other people think about this board and if you think they will get 50 people to pre order them too start their production



thanks

Already a couple of threads on this topic.

and you wont need a bulky batteryThe solenoid is what requires the 'bulky' battery not the board. Correct me if I am wrong-- :rolleyes:

you are correct, in order to get rid of it youd have to swtich the solenoid, then find a place for the 9v

I love the look and feel of the battery pack. I don't understand why people want to get rid of it...

Weight? Gimme a freaking break. Look how skinny I am in this pic. I have no problems what so ever with my gun. If someone is gonna complain about a 1-2lb battery then they need to go do some curls or something.

Wait, let me get this straight; they want people to order the product before they will make it? You can get away with that for a complete product, but this sounds like a bad idea for a component. I was thinking of getting anew board for my X but this does not sound like the deal I am looking for. Maybe a Predator II. Any other suggestions? I just play rec and some scenario and private games with friends, so I want a board that supports eyes and has a full auto option :)


If I am wrong and the above marketing idea is a valid concept, I want to announce that I am selling cars that run on aboslutely no fuel and never need upkeep. They will cost $50K each and if I have enough orders I will build them. LOL

I say just make it and market it, if it is good, the will buy!

If you had read the earlier threads, you would understand. TAG isn't a very large company, and making the boards without knowing if anyone will buy it is a big risk to take. Preorders are pretty commonplace in the paintball industry, so I don't see where the problem. TAG has clearly stated that if the limit isn't met, everyone will get their money back.

Exactly.

Oh, and it WILL support both breakbeam and reflective eyes. Please read the threads.

I played yesterday with my Predatored Angel LED. My friend Kyle played with his predatord DM4. They were the two fastest guns at the field.
