    The ACE will be located in the underside of the Xtreme body.
    The modules, both Warp & Center feed, will just have holes in them, so that the sensor can protrude through, and sit in the base of the breech. So if & when we introduce different modules, the ACE will still work with them.

        John....

        Quick question about upgrading an existing Emag to Xtreme body w/ACE... Will this require an upgrade to the 1.37 firmware that I already have? I've seen the SFL Emag picts online showing ACE options so I'm guessing that I'll be needing to send it in to get flashed.

          Hey Bob,

          Yes you will need to get upgraded software to allow the use of the eye. You will then be able to turn the eye on or off.

            Yes, you will need the new ACE software.
            We have the std ACE software finished, but we are finalising a second revision, to allow the use of 2 color balls, i.e. black & white, which is the worst case scenario. These 2 color paints would normally cause the sensor problems. If the sensitivity were set to sense black, then it would pick up the white side to soon, and cause a chop, and vice versa. The new revision has a built in delay in the software. This means that you can adjust the sensor to pick up the darker side of the ball, then whenever a ball is sensed in the breech, a very small (we're talking milliseconds) delay is added, before the gun is allowed to fire. This means that if the lighter side falls into the breech first, and is sensed too early, the small delay would give it time to reach the bottom of the breech, and so prevent a potential chop. This revision would be in addition to the regular ACE software, so you would only use it for 2 color balls. You can also turn the ACE software off completely if you want to, and use the marker without the eye.

              I dont mean to sound all childish and im sure u guys know this, but u do realize that over 80% of your customers dont have emags but are owners of rt pro's, rt's, or classics. So wouldnt u gear this new extreme body towards the standard mag first and then have an adapter for the emag's battery. Making a product that will only completely work on less than 20% of your customers guns doesnt seem to make sense to me. Just my 2 cents.

                  i dont see what the big deal is you can put just the casing for the battery on for a front grip or use the casing with a battery and modify it to run your warp or revy or something

                  id get all sorts of funky looks if i came to the field with an "extreme" with stock trigger frame

                    The Xtreme body is a high end product, which is why it is geared towards the E-Mag. Because of it's modular design, it is very expensive to produce. The upgrade package will probably cost around $300. It will retro fit RT Pro's, and Mags with the addition of an RT Pro Sear & sear pin, but it is expensive.
                    Our plan is to produce an aluminum body similar to the Xtreme, but designed for Mags & RT Pro's, and without the modular concept. It would be available with either C/Feed or Warp feed, but without the modular design, would be much cheaper.

                        those prices are great i was worried the price for a xmag would be way over 1500 and the upgrade pushing over 500 so i guess i can both get a upgrade and a new xmag next year as well.right now im using a emag with a minimag backup next year if those are the real prices i will have a xmag with a xmagupgrade backup. why you ask? cause i like letting people use my guns.
                        and as for why you dont make a regular mag upgrade package first question. just answer we are upgrading the emag at this time not the regular mag that will be at a later date and time. finaly anyone wanting to upgrade there automag get a rt pro anyone wanting to upgrade there pro get a emag upgrade emag to xmag , follow the cycle dont ask to upgrade bottom to top without paying for top quality right ok im tired ending a 43 hour day very sleepy cya.

                          ACE is quicker at preventing a chop then level 10!

                            Your probably right...But your talking $400. to not chop a faction of a secound faster. I'd rather there be an option when you buy the Extreme to get it without the ACE. I wouldnt mind have ACE, who wouldnt. But the cost isnt worth it to me.

                              Once you get an Extreme the option of ACE or not, would obviously NOT be $400. It would probably be very little and therefore is worth it as added protection. With a very bad ball level 10 would not stop it being broken open, but ACE would... I now have over 28 cases of through my level 10 guns and my extreme C&C probably has 16 cases of that... no breaks yet at all (not in the barrel or the breech). With my C&C I don't even get the pinches or 'pfft' noises (unless giving demo's) as I have the ACE switched on.
