Fly A4 in action

[Sparco]

** Disclaimer **

I'm currently home for the Easter holiday and had the opportunity to run about 175rds through my marker to show my girlfriend (behind the camera). The lighting was poor, and in all honesty the quality was simply dreadful.

The marker is running off a 450psi input bottle, 180psi into the marker, LPR at approximately 55psi for this video. There was approximately 175rds of 5 week old field blaze used in the video with no breaks. A better, daylight over the shoulder video will follow shortly. The marker was fed from a Z-Board evo II.

ROF was approximately 15bps and was done more so to show that the "11bps" error doesn't exist in all markers.

Zipped to conserve bandwidth, approximately 2.8mb (13 secs).

Yes I realize I was shooting slow in the video, yes I realize the quality is dreadful. But my "show stopper" to Owen's video will come next weekend.

So that is what u did with my money.....j/k. cant wait to see the next vid

[Sparco]

Pretty much! :) Nah... your money is going right back to Ken for an orange MT ASAP.

I was actually quite disappointed with the way the video came out, obviously it doesn't show a good representation of the speed... it's one of those "it looked faster in person."

[DarkHelmet931]

if there was a little more light it might have been a little better. instead all i could see was the faint movements of your fingers.

oh well this just means you have to make another one..... a good one.

Anyway LMK how the eyes work between you and Emmit i should be able to make a decision on the retro-fit kit. Im very tempted right now cause i want the new force board.

For your "show stopper," Try to get an angle looking down the barrel, or behind you so that we can see the paint hitting a target.

Obviously. :hi:

Try these settings in order to be able to see what's happening better.

Im sorry but that video just made me so.....
sad?...i dunno :bounce:

I recently shot a fly and it was way better than that, everything was all stock except the nicely done trigger job (impact) and on any other gun it wouldve been like 17, but on the fly it was 24. Did you fix anything?

[Benfrain]

Sparco, you could have been beating a drum for all we can see in that video! LMAO, if you hadn't told us what we were about to watch I'm not sure some of us would have guessed correctly...

[Doctor]

i dont know man. it was enough to get me really anxious to get my force fly.

[dynastySSS]

pretty cool

[Sparco]

ya... looking back on it now I realize how absolutely dreadful that attempt at filming the marker was.

Honestly the speed was pretty solid, considering it was being fed off a z-board evolution. I highly doubt you got 24bps out of z-board evo with paint, even 17bps is difficult to sustain with that loader.

[SkeL]

For all we know, you could've been chopping and exploding paint the whole time :)

def, my Z halo had a tough time when i hit 24

[Frank_McCrank]

15bps? i seemed rather slow on that vid. i adjusted brightness and all that so i could see it better. hmm if thats 15bps i must shoot like 20 or something, but that is not possible since my Egg2 doesnt feed that fast. im confused... maybe it seems faster when you actually shoot yourself...

[Sparco]

Perhaps, but the girlfriend was running a clock and I hand counted 175rds. It took approximately 11.5 seconds to empty the hopper which is approximately 15bps.
