How Fast is This ?

[Mossman]

I found at least 13cps for a second at a time. I'll do a better job tomorrow and post a screen shot, it's bedtime now.

Thanks mossman..
now that a few people have seen the videos,of the two what one do you think is faster ?
i think the second one.
tomarrow will be paint test day and i am also going to try to add a roller to the trigger.

testing is so much fun..

I think the mpeg video is faster.

With a roller trigger you should be able to keep the ROF up more consistently.

Interesting wrist angle and 'flick' movement at the end of the .mpg video made me laugh. Are you a conductor in real life?....

Obviously not.
Also, you can't cap a mechanical gun(I know this ones electro, but its not available to us., just lucky testers!)

That gun looks sweeeet!! But i'de prefer a different battery pack shape.

That is pretty fast. I would hate that laying paint on my bunker in a match.

So, thats 2 for a differen't battery pack!

[Toakes22]

It's a great idea to have a boltless marker. I have to try one(possibly purchase) an e-epic.

Any paint vids?

[p8ntball72]

Loading up now 3:30 az time so not long for the videos..
Also i cant find a Roll Pin small enough to do the roller mod, but i have the gun till the end of the week so well see..


vids up soon..

[WARPED1]

Awesome, now get to work yourself redesigning that battery pack! Hey! Redesign my EMag one too!

[AcemanPB]

It's just the prototype, I doubt the battery will stay that way. To me it looks like just a standard Epic with the battery and solenoid bolted on. I doubt the final product will looks like this.

respect..
the electro body is still in the design phase.

And watching the gun fire over 10cps I guess they fixed some of the problems with older Epics, are they anymore efficent?

[p8ntball72]

ho humm...this is how testing goes..


The with-paint videos arnt working as planned because im cameraman and shooter.
i can post a video but its not that impressive and not really one that im proud of as far as speed.
In this afternoons tests there were NO breaks
BUT the speeds were far lower than the gun is capable of doing.

as far as body design goes, there will be many changes before release.
there are a few really nice photoshoped automag bodies floating around this forum and Insight may do some polls for body design but thats "down the road" on my to/do list.

Thanks agine for all your input, and im sure Jim at Insight will be checking this thread often.

P.S. Efficiency test by the end of the week .
my scuba tank is empty..

I don't know what made me think of it, but I think a good nickname for this gun would be an E^2 (E-Squared). I was thinking b/c it was an e-epic, you could just take the two e's and say its an e squared.
