IONized 'Mag Pneu-frame?

[Scott Hudnall]

OK, my next question was if you had tried a QEV. It would need to be placed between the vent and the ram. Most QEV's will trigger with aprox 5 psi shift-- I would think that if the vent is enough to allow the ram to return at a decent speed, it should be enough to trigger a QEV.. hmmm.

But then again, if it is working fine without a QEV, Why mess with it!?
(A QEV would, however, allow the system to work more efficiently and at an overall lower pressure.)

when I mock the system back up after the new board gets in, I'll give it another try with the QEV.

Thanks nicad.

wow, nice pictures. How does it look with the grip covering it all up?

[chip08]

Do you have a QEV running before the actuator?

[omegaredghost]

i have not coverd it with the grips as they will have to be hollowed out on the inside and yes the qev is mounted on the actuator tight fit but you can see it the first pic

VERY NICE placement of the board and parts!!! nice job on the frame, my friend!!! and you even got the 9v in the frame, too. nice work, O!

[Scott Hudnall]

I've got a new ION board on it's way.

Lets get some vids up of a functioning imag, im vary interested in how it will work out. Besides Nicad said there is a DW shirt in it for the guy who completes it first

[Scott Hudnall]

got the new board/noid in. will have it done within a day or two.

Worked on it today. Want to play with it Sunday. doing final install parts in the frame, hope to be fully complete Saturday 10/21.

and Omegared - once it's going and working right, I'll have the plunger for you. PM me about it. and i wish I had a millling machine like you. I'm jealous.

Thanks.

Scott I'll bring camera and get some pics. Maybe small video. Though you or someone else host as I can't access FTP server I use

Actually not sure how good video is with my digital camera. tried on ein Okinawa and it didnt turn out well.

And did find a loaner mask

*edit*

I just created a putfile.com account. My camera records video in 320x240. I'm going to test it to see how good quality that is.

*edit again* My camera doesn't support sound

My friends -

the iMag lives!!!!!

It's assembled and working beautifully.

I'll post more later about the different 'mag parts and aftermarket parts I'm using on it. It's an interesting compilation.

A few things at this point. I was using a "Reactor Valve" as the on/off. I had problems with the valve resetting, so I switched it out and put in a stock AM/MM on/off....works without a hitch.

The 9v battery - this is where I just want to kick myself. My placement of the ION board in the Logic frame was pretty poor. Yes, it works, but it could have been placed much better to allow for a 9v battery in the frame. So, I bought a Emag battery pack (and rail) to use, to place the LPR and 9v in the Emag battery pack. Nice hiding place, eh? Turns out that with the additional fittings needed for the LPR, I can't get the 9v in the battery pack at this time. I can fit it if I dremel it out a bit. We'll see how I decide to go on the 9v placement. At this time, I'm running wires out of the grip and putting the 9v under my tank cover. Doesn't look horribly bad......who am I kidding....yes it does. But I want to use it tomorrow and so the 9v will be ugly for now.

I'll post pics later of the grip, etc. It really came out cleaner looking inside than I thought it would.

Is there a 9v power source that is smaller than a standard 9v battery? any one know? I can "almost" fit the 9v in the frame. Wish I had paid more attention to the board placement.

testimony on the iMag will come from other AO users who will be at the field Sunday here in Central Indiana - Gator Joe's paintball.

Yes, it does work fine in ramping mode.

but it's still incredibly fast in semi-auto, walkable with little effort.

Thanks. Will post finished pics later. On the outside, it looks like an Emag with a verticle 90 Logic frame. insides, it's the iMag conversion.

If you get it to work, you should make a video of it shooting, if it works, I might try it.

I doubt you have the ability or the intellect to perform anything technical.
