Is the Victory for the Halo B worth it? Because I am going to get it intellfeed on my tadao'ed 04 Speed.

its not that expensive, either. (cheaper than a stock board with z-code)

a stock board with z-code
That is what I have, and what is the max bps the z-code will give you versus the vicotry (35 bps I think?)?

yeah the vic is 35. the z code will give you 23 i think

I've had my Halo B forever and upgraded to the Victory board while I had my 04 Speed which I never saw the board's potential, but I bought a used Fly (which when I got it the previous person who owned it had the TR up all the way) and test fired it as soon as I got it. My Halo B with Vic got up to 24 BPS (changed from 33 to 24 because my LCD screen was jacked up at that time and it appeared to be more then what it was), but I did chop once during that experience. Absolutely crazy!

Honestly is it worth the $30 because no tourney will let you go above 15 bps?

I don't think you will need it if you are going to intellfeed ..The intellfeed should bypass the board & the eye's in the Halo, while you will still be using the hopper's power supply the board in the gun will control the hopper's motor.. This is why you intellfeed it kinda makes the gun and hopper work insync together.. So no Halo board will be used....

Hmmm I've been wondering the same thing. However, wouldn't the victory board just raise the bps and the intellifeed just controls when the halo spins?

as far as I know, the board and eyes are still there. Incase the intelli comes unplugged or something goes wrong. That way your hopper can still feed properly.

If this is true, then just slap a vic in there. that way incase something happens you can still rely on the fast vic board.

Even if your tourny's are capped at 15, the vic will be more consistent.

Yea but what about the feed rate while the intellifeed is working? Will a stock halo with intellifeed do 35 bps like a vic boarded halo? Or will it just do stock 23?

Ya that is the same thing I am wondering because that will be the decision maker for me.

If I might guys. One of the perks of driving the loader with Intellifeed is that it only operates at gun board signal. You additionally have settings on the gun board to further tweak your feedrates. Or simply the amount of signal time from board to signal the hopper rotation. This additional setting determines the on time or rotation of the hopper. It will with proper tweaking only supply enough paint to keep a smooth stream without jamming balls. It will only respond to trigger pull. In the event that the loader eyes are open it will also feed paint under its own logic.
The loader will not run away from the marker. They are in sync. So in truth it is your trigger pull rate that will determine MROF. Well that is, for what ever your board is set at will limit that rate.

Ok so I think the answer is that the intelifed halo will be able to reach speeds of a regular halo with a cheetah or angry board. From what I can gather, it does the same thing to the halo speed-wise, except for the intellifeed the speed is controlled by the gun, unlike a cheetah or angry board which just constantly feeds at a high rate unless the eye tells it to stop. If i got this wrong someone may correct me but I think I got the gist of it now. So the conclusion is that the intelifeed can feed as fast if not faster than other third market halo boards, except it handles slower speeds better cuz it feeds at whatever speed the gun is shooting and doesnt rely on the eyes at the feedneck to just suddenly stop while loading. I guess this is what people have been trying to say, but just didnt put it in laymans terms. However, one question that pops into mind is that can the intellifeed speed the halo up enough so that it can load the gun when the gun is going at it's physical limitations.

the new intellifeed for the tadao boards keeps the board and eyes intact and uses both ... it makes it faster and more reliable so if one fails the other kicks in ... i say go for it but i never liked my victory board so i sold it ... now i have a reloader b
