BlackVCG's ULT Thread

[afrankart]

Has anyone with an adjustable noticed any increase in reactivity and decrease in chuffing at higher output levels. My Dynaflow should be here tomorrow and I am hoping to notice a difference in the way it feels.

[Jerhew]

yeah slightly...
im running mine at around 900psi and it's great
with my rear trigger stop i dont chuff anyway
but even without the trigger stop the reactivity is good enough to keep it to a minimum
heck once you learn your trigger, you barely ever chuff...
and even when i have, i still havent broken a ball or double fed

[afrankart]

Seems to me that when I chuff, there is usually just enough pressure on the bolt to roll the ball right out of the tip, so I haven't broken any balls yet. i love this trigger, but was having some small problems with bolt stick. To remedy that, I have purchased some KC troublefree-I was wusing Gold cup, and a new Dynaflow tank. I am happy with it at 750 psi, I was just trying to find out if I can expect even better performance at 900 psi or so. I hope so, and isn't it funny how some people can justify spending $400 to get a $50 mod working at its best?

lmao
funny
no
it's perfectly reasonable

is the ult really worth it?

[Steelrat]

I tried it on Mike's mag. I'd have to say no, though it did feel a bit smoother than a normal mag.

well put it this way
YES!
but there are some things to consider...
it's good if you like having more control over how your trigger feels, if you like to tinker a bit...you wont get it right on the first try...

this is the biggest problem with the ult...
if it's not set up well, it won't seem so great
i was wary of it myself but it's well worth it, especially for the price...

[afrankart]

I have absolutely no regrets about getting it. In fact, I can shoot considerably faster than with my normal on/off. At first I had some problems, and after a lot of fine tuning, It works perfectly for me. Although I don't know if I myself would put it in a classic.

[sps16]

thats kinda what i figured, on yaggy's mag it was pretty nice

[afrankart]

Alright, I got a chance to try it out with my dynaflow and some KC lube. at 900 psi, and very well lubed, I could both test the level 10 and shortstroke and there was no more bolt-stick. Now though, I have to do some re-tuning of the ULT because it was very obvious that the extra 150 psi I am cramming in there developed one really nice sweetspot. I am out of air for now, so no more testing till this weekend. One thing I forgot was that I also changed to the next larger carrier and up to the middle spring. All of these changes has made this upgrade quite a bit better than I had expected. I couldn't ask for more.

[stondroopy]

ok,i would like to do this upgrade myself but if im totally lost or screw up can i send it to someone to set it up?

[afrankart]

Man, some kindergarteners could probably install this right. It is very easy.

[stondroopy]

hmm well thers a kid down the street but i think he is in 2nd grade hey im gonna order one today so hopefully all goes well

[kiwi n0ddy]

should I?

Hey.
After reading this whole thread, very informative by the way. I was wondering what the general consensus is on whether I should get the ULT trigger.
I run a classic mag, but its got the 8-hole turbo drilling mod. So I don't really experience any shoot down at the moment. I was thinking of buying a booyah frame or centerflag hyperframe for my mag, but didn't want to deal with some finicky POS electro-frame for my baby. I'm thinking about getting a X-valve upgrade sometime in the very near future. But I was thinking of getting the ULT first. Basically, this mod sounds really badass and I need at least one person to say "just buy the damn thing" and I will. Oh hey, whats the best lube to use on this thing? I do just fine using gold cup now, but after reading this thread I think I'll have to upgrade to something a little more serious to avoid funny sticking probs etc.. would DOW 33 work? imagine for a second I know nothing about such things.
Thanks.
This forum kicks ***, and Tom Kaye is some kind of paintball god.

[Jerhew]

personally i'd wait and just save for the xvalve
i havent tried it on a classic and some people have claimed to have good results but others say its waay to easy to short stroke

btw don't use dow33 on a mag...
dow is nice for cocker and shocker bolts... thats basically it...
it's too heavy to use on a mag
you want the lightest oil possible
people seem to be having good luck with KC
i personally use ats lube(came with my at-85)
