    E-Mag Owners!!! ACE Board Upgrades!

    EDIT: Its a GO! Please See Post 58(this post has been editied) -KC


    Pleasa read before you vote. For those of you that dont know, the ace board is an eye found on the X-mag and SFL. The eye looks into the breach to ensure a paintball is chambered and ready to fire. Once that check is complete the electronics of the X-mag will allow the noid to trigger and fire the X-Mag.

    Emags can be upgraded with ACE, AND its getting easier!

    Recently:
    -Papa has found a company to make the discontinued ACE boards (with a few modern improvements) @ a price tag of ~$99.99 With loopers help we will be offering E-mag Ace Board Kits. The kits will come ready to install and include the wires and mounting hardware.

    ACE milling on body and a rail will be.....$30
    ACE milling on a frame only will be......$30
    If you want both done the price will be.....$50
    If you want it wired and installed.....$25

    New bodies pre milled for ACE!

    Board/Software
    -The stock emag board and agd software (most) support ace already.
    -The Xmod software has made ace adjustment issues a thing of the past.


    Benifits
    -Prevents chamber chops. Period. The gun cant fire if the paintball isn't chambered.
    -Shorter firedelays. ACE delay recovery is much shorter then level 10 recovery.
    -Doesn't detract from the aesthetics of your custom E-mag. ACE is completely internal.
    -The ACE board power switch eliminating the need for the silly plastic pin.
    -Allows easier, more reliable level 10 tunes without chopping.
    -Can be used with LVL-7 to gain efficiency and reliability without chopping.


    So the question is, would you buy an ace board for your Emag?

    Yes. Ive always wanted "eyes" and costs/support looks great.

    No. I would love to run ACE but the cost is not worth it for me.

    No. I don't want to send my parts off for milling work.

    I'm not sure. I need more information. (post what you need)

    I might be interrested in this. I have just recently gone the way of electronics and am still feeling my way around in the dark.

        Yes I'd go for it. My X-Mag doesn't have an ace board. The eye is on a loom so no switch.
        I wouldn't mind trying it out on one of my E-Mags either.

            I actually would like the idea of the sister board to be mounted ontop of the stock board and a eye wire be strung to the breech so that regular emags could have less milling, only a hole and a eye wire channel needed and eye wire could piggy back on where the red wire is strung

              For those that don't want to have their bodies millied (Like most Chord/Karta/Dallara owners), this is the best way to have eyes and not 'disrupt' the beauty of the Deadlywind bodies.

              When my E-Mag is complete I'd be on board (*rimshot*) for this. My lowers were once X-Mag lowers in a former life, so only modifications I'd need are to my rail and body.

                  That is coming. Luke said he would be willing to do mine for me. He just needs the specs.

                    No, but I would buy an on/off switch.

                      ACE board maybe.. on/off switch in lieu of that yellow pin - absolutely so if the ACE is a necessary evil or evil for the purpose of good sign my emags up.

                          another question or consideration: once everything is milled out, any recommendations for a lense to cover the eye or is that integral to the ace board?

                            Ace repair as well as replacement are options I didnt think about. Im sure they could be offered services. Please vote some form of yes for those options.

                            The eye element has its own protection just like the xmag its built into the component.

                              I would love a ACE board for my Emag just for the switch but having backup eye for my Lvl 10 is also a plus.
                              But I'm wondering how hard would it be to mod the rail because I'm not the most mechanically inclined.
