    The ace board switch slot is very small. About the size of 2 q-tip sticks layed side by side. Its actually smaller then the hole in the battery case.

    When I was lookin at putting the 1000mah battery packs together I explored the idea of a battery pack top that included an on/off switch. After alot of trial I don't think its worth it ... especially now that the ace boards are on the horizon.

        I dont think its needed. Honestly. Im having my 2005 Karta milled for ACE and I have no plans of re-annoing. If you find something you think will work, im all for you posting it up. I just dont think its needed.

          update

          The signal wire will have a mode lock jumper similar to the one found in the xmod manual. This is a great feature for rec players, where selectable modes of fire are allowed.

              Well the prototype is here in CO. Its going off to XT in the next day or so. Once I get it back we will be launching a pre-order thread.

              Once we have the orders placed it will take 4-5 weeks to get the boards in.

                  If anyone hasnt voted, please do so.

                  -The prototyle should be done very soon.
                  -Install kits are going to be built inhouse. (looper has helped greatly in the sourcing and prototyping.)
                  -XT will also be offering the milling along with install service.
                  -DW has sent me word that New DW bodies can be milled with ace straight from DW.
                  -XT will infact offer ACE milling services on New XT bodies.
                  -RRfireblade has accepted our invitation to mill parts for ace board installation.

                    Personally, I am more concerned with the on/off switch than I am with the ACE. But, if getting a switch installed costs almost as getting the whole kit, then I guess I am in. It just might be a while before I am able to cough up the dough to get this upgrade.

                      any approximation when a prelaunch thread might get going?

                        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

                        Those are pretty cheap prices.

                        I intend to offer the ACE option on my bodies in the future. The price will be $25. All XT customs bodies that were not millled for ACE can be sent back and i will do them for $25.

                              BenoitOWN. The board will be an exact agd ace board clone. These boards were once only found in the Xmag and SFL but can now be installed into modified emags.

                              paintball72. Thanks, were are pretty proud of what we have accomplished. The parts and services will be available as long as their is demand for them.
