Dynaflow vs flatline vs AA -need opinions and reactivity

[trains are bad]

I need opinions from the tank owners! I need a tank (soon) because my 3000 flatline is only 3000 and i have never been able to get runaway, which I want.

I can buy a used 4500 flatline for $300 yikes

Dynaflow for 220

armageddon for around 200

I want light and compact (happy with my flatline that way) so I think the geddon is out.

I definately want reliabillty and reactiveness! So If you have any of the above tanks, or even have experience with them let me know how they are!

from personal experience, the 4500 flatline is no more reactive than the 3000 flatline. to be honest, it was the only agd product that ive ever been unhappy with. i would go with the dynaflow. ive never come across a centerflag profuct that i didnt like.

Speaking from personal experience I would have to say the Flatline and the AA regs are the best out ther for adjustability. The Flatline 4500 and the Apoc2k 4500 are virtually the same wieght(give or take a half an ounce ) I have never had more reliable regs and tanks than the AA or AGD. Im not bashing Dynaflow.. I'm just letting you know my view on the AA and AGD tanks/regs.

[trains are bad]

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. I want the most reactivity at the lowest pressure!

I cannot afford a maxflo.

I am also looking at a AA apoc.

Though those 2 tanks are very good choices, I might suggest you have those DynaFlos a look too. I was thoroughly impressed at what they could do when I was making that QLoader video. They are light, and very reactive + they have a bleed line. I am considering them as my next tank.

Cool I think I'll get a dynaflow. I liked the looks of them but I was worried because they only go to 1000 and I was getting nothing out of my flatline at 1150. Dynaflow it is.

[Z-man]

and again the reg really dictates the input pressure you have to use. I had an old 3K AGD Flatline and was not able to get much rapid-fire out of it even when I cranked it to 1200psi. Now here I am with a Max-Flo and I can rapid-fire down around 900psi. Why? because no 2 regs perform the same and just becuase they can both be set to 900psi does not mean that they recharge the same rate or have the same flow rate.

[trains are bad]

Right that's what I thought I just needed confirmation that a dynaflow especially would provide good reactivity even though it doesn't go as high. Which is, actually, exactly what I want.

[magman007]

if you are running a lvl 10, i highly suggest the dyna or hyperflow tanks. the bleed line/ on off is a key part, as the valve will retain air and you will not be able to de gas the gun completely. this makes maintinence very hard, as you cannot take off the macroline, or tahe out the valve, without the dreadful flying on off assy.

or, you could just install a slide check, quick disconnect, or a pro connect, but they all look ugly on your sweet setup

[Z-man]

I dont think mine looks that bad do you? But you are right, given a choise I would have a tank with a built in bleed line than use a slide check or something like that.

dynaflow owns all! they are awsome tanks and can be found on the cheap used

[Thordic]

I love my dynaflow. Its nice and compact, lightweight, and works like a champ.

I've gotten 1100 PSI output pressure, but mine is one of the older-style ones.

[vf-xx]

I've been happy with my 'Geddon. I've been running about 900psi REMOTE and that's just barely under the reactivity edge. I'm fairly certian that if it was on gun it'd be reactive. This is also WITH a ULT.

[JimInVA]

I, too, have been trying to make an "air decision". I'd orginally discounted the Dynaflow due to reading multiple comments about its output pressure going up as its input pressure went down. That implied that I could chrono with a full tank at 280 and then come off the field and find myself at something much higher. Any truth that this trait is present with the Dynaflow??

I want to go in at 3000 psi (or 4500) having set to 280 fps and come out with near 1000 psi remaining in the tank and still chrono at 280 when I check it.

A dynaflow or hyperflow is definitely the way to go if your primary concern is reactivity/sweet-spotting. I went from flatline to hyperflow (one without bleed) to my current dynaflow. Was never able to get a real consistent sweet spot with flatline, but had no problem with hyper or dyna. Never used an armageddon, so I can't say on that one. Good luck!
