does anyone know what is different about this "new" single magnet frame they're talking about in the product description? is it different than the g7 frame?

Only one magnet and one vernier wheel. You can adjust the strength of the magnet's pull to your liking via a set screw. The toe adjustment is still done via a set screw. The trigger travel is adjusted by the vernier wheel and a set screw, though I don't recall which is return and which is over travel.

The new "break-away" trigger that is on the G7 Fly and beyond actually has two magnets in the system. One magnet is in the frame of and the other on the back vernier wheel. A set screw that is on the trigger adjusts the distance of trigger away from the front magnet. This adjusts the strength of the trigger's return. The magnet on the vernier wheel repells the trigger which also acts as the return after you pull the trigger.

More info on the trigger right from the manual:

Got some more specs on the new G7 Fly trigger. It is actually called the "Magnetic Adjustable Force Trigger" in the manual addendum that I have.

Here ya go:

Magnetic adjustable force trigger:
ADDENDUM TO PAGE 21 - REPLACES VERNIER TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT

The trigger system has four adjustable point, front travel, backstop, activation point, and magnetic return strength control.

The return strength is controlled through the foremost set screw located on the under side of the trigger, turning the set screw counter clockwise will decrease the return force of the trigger making it lighter to operate, turning this set screw clock wise will increase the strength of the return force of the trigger.

The front travel adjustment is done via the rear most of the set screws located underneath the trigger, turning the screw clockwise will reduce the amount of front travel; turning the screw counter clockwise will increase the amount of front travel.

The back adjustment is done via the single adjustment wheel, turning the wheel clockwise moves the position of the back stop further back, moving the wheel in a counter clockwise motion will move the position of the back stop forward.

And of course it also has the standard toe adjustment screw.

By the way - Can anyone guess where they got the brilliant idea for the new trigger adjustments?

The other feature the new software has is the Mechanical de-Bounce (MdB) filtering. This is an extra level of electronic filtering applied to the trigger software in addition to the trigger offset feature to allow the user to filter out any unwanted bounce from their trigger caused by the mechanical effects.

There are settings for MdB. 1 through 20, with 1 offering the lowest level of bounce filtering and 20 offering the highest valve of filtering.

From the way Ken described the MdB to was that the trigger can be set to the very closest it can be without bouncing. You can bring it right to the edge to get the most out of the trigger and still be "legal".
