Electro Logic Vert Automag Frame????????

[CoolHand]

If you notice, they are out of stock too.

CF it is for now.

Stay tuned.

sorry to hear more bs from the was boy. I really do not care what board is used as long as it is fast and reliable. I know nothing about the vaporworks board, much less than even the was boards. Do they work the same as the was boards (eyes, high rof, lcd compatibility, debounce, dwell, etc)?

On a side note, is there any way to uncapp the cf boards? I mean I cannot shoot above 20 bps, but with the xvalve, ult, and a electronic frame I would love to know I COULD have the POTENTIAL to shoot above 20. Also, if someone reaches that 21 bps, does the cf board simply not respond and will not shoot?

So what was the approximate pricing on these bad boys?

[sslecyk03]

I have to admit i am a bit dissapointed about not using WAS. But, maybe we can look around at other boards that might be a better suited before we say that the CF is the one thats going to be used. I dont think a lil research would hurt either.

[CoolHand]

There are two main reasons we have decided to use the CF boards.

1) We know they work. No R&D needed.
2) We know they fit in the allotted space, something which the WAS boards would not do.

Have you looked at the Morlock board

The morlocks are HUGE, filling the entire frame by themselves. We could use one, but then we'd have to have an external battery pack, which no one wants.

I have looked. Been looking for a month now. The CF is the easiest to make work, and since WAS is out of the picture, the most likely to work.

This is the board we are using; the decision has been made, and the CAD stage has begun.

There is nothing wrong with the CF board, except the lack of eyes, and the heavy switch. We are replacing the switch with an Imp/Matrix style switch, so the only thing missing is eyes, but you all already know how well the Lvl-X works.

We had to make a call so this project could proceed, I made it, and we are moving forward.

[sslecyk03]

ok, at least this will speed up the process a little bit. Your the captain.

Also, because we are not using the extremely overpriced WAS board, can we expect a decrease in the estimated price for now?

[phantomhitman]

i am behind you %100 ryan. if you think the cf board is up to par then i agree also. the better micro switch is even better, hopefully I will get my ult tuned in before I get the frame also. i guess i will go ahead with my dallara body order now also

can anyone answer my previous questions though?

This is just speculation, but I am betting that if you pull 21,23,45 bps, the board will just humm right along and an even 20. No drastic failures, no turning itself off, it will just sound like full auto, set at 20 bps.

I am not 100% sure of that, 'cause I can't pull the trigger fast enough to test the theory, but that would make sense.

Whether we can uncap them depends mostly on how they are capped to begin with. If it is software, we might be able to talk CF into having a firmware upgrade, but if it is built into the board (like the timing resonator, or the rate that it checks the trigger switch) then it will pretty much have to stay.

man, when are they expected to be done im gettin excited

[Corbet]

so can we have a brief summary of everything? What is being changed that is usually in a HyperFrame, things like that?

[bokraham]

so then it is going to be like a CF hyperframe w/ mechanical capabilities? I have no idea what is going on.

No, it will be a vertical electronic only grip for mags.

[CoolHand]

OK, to summarize:

Frame will be aluminum.
It will use CF Board, CF Solenoid, Uberlight Microswitch (brand TBA).
Alum Blade Trigger with magnet return
Standard 9v batteries mounted inside the frame
ELCTRO ONLY There will be no mechanical mode with these (don't ask, it can't be done without rebuilding the EMag)
It will most likely use custom grips that we will provide.

Cost is TBA, but we will keep it under $350 (nobody would by it if it was more than that)
