    Yes, I am pre-gaming for Tunaball.

    Some members on the AO are graced by a phone call when I am under said influences, and the results are rather funny!

    Do we have pictures of Trina, would be my first question.

    Second one, the Trina responding to the Tunaball posts is the same Trina correct?

      Keep AO updated.

      The update is:

      No update!

      I've been passed some good advice on legal matters and I am taking it. Taking a longer look over my current status with my legal advisor while I wait for parts to come in to gear up for Tunaball.

      Physcial advancement has been on hold till parts arrive from suppliers.

      Paper work advancement has continued.

        GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

          Does clippard know they may only sell a hundred or so of these parts at most... and that Smart Parts owns a patent for the electronic control of a paintball firing sequence (which they aggressively enforce)? Even though you are not making electronic paintball guns, making a product that enables the violation of a patent by others violates that patent.

          The truth is, aside from AO and the small populous of the mag PBN Forum, all information of this product will be by word of mouth unless you plan on advertising. And for non mag enthusists, I don't see much logic in them buying a 400 mech to drop another $150+ just to upgrade it to electro when more functional electros exist on the market. Plus, for the 40 or so pneumag owners around, all they have to do is buy a board, SMC noid, and mount a switch to go electro.


          Anyways I really hope something like could happen for mags. I know I'd look into upgrading my mag.
          Off the top of my head here are a few design points i can think of:
          The intelli, chimera, and Airwalk all have the same AGD specs internally. Measure one and you know them all.
          Logic frames are considerably narrower and use different height and depth for the trigger canal.
          I've found the PSI to variable depending on setup, but a pressure range of 50psi all the way to 150psi+ may be needed to activate the sear with a 3/8" bore piston.
          You'll want them to design for actuation frequencies of around 25Hz for the valve and piston.

          /if you need any other relevent info, lemme know I'll see what I can measure or dig up from CADs.

            Edit;

            Pneu,.. I had a nice reply to you with PLENTY of explenations.

            I had to edit it a few times and after everything was on paper,.. it leaves too much room for an arguement.

            PM me with your questions, Ill give you some answers I posted earlier.

            Sorry.

              And for a nice short post for a change from me,....!

              Pneu,.. if you could get me some of the info/files it would help. Im not too keen on all the entire layout of the frames, but the inside dimentions would help.

              Ive got some I made (Inelli) and 1 other but I dont have the Chimera.


              Thanx!

                  Yes.

                  This project is still breathing,.. and no it is NOT on life support!

                  I have started back to work so I am not spending my days on it like I was before.

                  HOWEVER,........


                  If you are not comming to Tunaball on May 5th,.... I would give that a second thought as I will be there,.. and I am bringing 2 surprises with me

                  If you didnt get the hint,... here's another,... hope you like getting shot at by guns breaking 25bps

                            No. They will not be for sale.

                            Beta testing for 2 guys will be going on during the day.

                            The testing will be MOSTLY for the boards and the RAM. I have some common parts that all of you are using to build these as well as custom parts.

                            I will let you know more as we get closer to the game!
