Simply this means that as ROF increases, velocity decreases.....unless the reg has absolutely no lag in regulation, which is not true for any regurlator because of design.

    you need 2 things for consistant energy delivered to the paitnball(velocity): defined dump chamber volume and pressure. or defined dwell and flow rate at constant pressure. The first is easy, the second to truely be effective dwell would have to vary based on rate of fire to accound for the pressure drop as flow rate increases(because of rof).

    simply put, if you want to make a mag work solely on the on/off you need excating controll of the on/off and also a program which varies based on ROF to account for flow rates.

    +2 internets ito you, if you understand what I mean because I'm drunk and can barely understand what I typed right now
    I haven't considered that design much, but that level of control would be available in a T-board type controller with a temperature sensor input. A common microcontroller with both a pressure and temperature sensor would be a good development platform for any marker, since the electrical power and mechanical design are going to take significantly more effort.

    That's the main thing I miss from AGD. You have to wonder what TK could have done with all of the electronics available today, combined with AGD machining capabilities. The electronic angel bottle regulator (I always forget the name) was just a weak step in that direction. It's just a rare and cool occurrence when technology, ideas, manufacturing and resources all match up at the same time.
