viking board questions

[ilikePB]

I have WAS 1.6 in my Vik and it rocks. There isn't really a need to change the stuff that can't be changed by the trigger. You can change dwell, debounce and eye mode from the trigger. I have never had a problem with it and I don't have fsdo. It is very fast and very simple to change settings by the trigger. If your Viking has WAS there is no need to change to Pandora unless it dies or you have extra money to spend on it. Was doesn't have different firing modes, but Pandora does, so that's one cool thing about Pandora, even though you can't use it at most fields, it's still fun to mess around with. Although, in db1 with the Bedlam switch my Vik goes frickin crazy fast. If you have Nelson I'd just say go ahead and get Pandora unless you can get a WAS board used.

Viking must have eyes, everything else is extra *bling

whats the bps cap on a excal in the following situations? WAS board w/ eyes, WAS board w/ eyes, pandora board w/ eyes. thanks all.

with eyes - uncapped, as fast as the marker will cycle/loader will feed.
I've found with my excal, 16bps is pretty attainable

without eyes, capped at 13 with WAS and with Pandora, you can set the ROF through the trigger (you can set the WAS through an EQ cable)

and I don't believe the Viking must have eyes, i shot mine for 3 years without eyes and only had 4 or 5 chops due to outshooting loaders

but eyes truly unlock the potential

thanks again :). the only reason i ask is because sometimes i come across a cheap excal and ya... just wonder if it'd be worth it. anyways, thanks.

definatly worth it. i find it easier to keep long streams up with my excalibur than the viking

the viking is faster, i find the excalibur easier to keep on target, easier to rip long strings

Did the Viking or Vikings have a MM. I found it had much less kick and thus was easier to keep on target after installing a MM. My Viking absolutely rips and is very easy to maintane a high rof, I think WAS 1.6 may help me a little.

have you shot an excalibur? If not, you've got to try one for a few games

I've shot a few vikings (including ones with the MM) and I still find the excal as smooth as butta' and faster on long strings

No. I'm actually the only one with a Viking around here and Excals seem to be even more rare. If Xcals are faster on long strings then I must try one. I just don't see how that would be. The only difference is that one is closed bolt and the other open. So I could see that it would be smoother feeling, closed bolts tend to seem that way to me, but I don't see it being faster on long strings.

it's easier to shoot a long fast accurate string with the excalibur, is what I'm getting at
