how do you do it? im pretty new to electro pneumatic markers and i know mostly everything on my gun except for this.. i could really use some help.

 

[martix_agent]

and you marker is...?

 

[NorCalBaller]

promaster, ebay valve, cp reg, shocktech supler fly bolt, those are just the ups that have to do with air

 

[martix_agent]

ah ok.
set the regulators to 0ish. air it up, set the hpr to around 230psi. then turnt he LPR in till teh bolt cocks and you hear a leak, back it out till the leak stops, yet the bolt stays cocked.

Now the fun begins, At this point it should be shooting, but no marker is the same so everyone has a different setting. An air effecient setup is a high HPR pressure and low dwell. A low kick setup is the opposite.

so if i were to chrono and the velocity is too high and i turn down the hpr do i need to adjust my lpr at all?

 

[martix_agent]

no no. once the lpr is locked in, don't mess with it. use the hpr to adjust velocity.

 

[NorCalBaller]

how do you decided what pressure to adjust the hpr to? i mean before you adjust the lpr, like how did you get 230psi

 

[martix_agent]

it's in the manual
or are you asking how you adjust the pressure of the HPR? What regulator are you using?

 

[NorCalBaller]

i know how to adjust it.. but it is?? i didn;t see that part ima have to read the manual over again. thanks for all your help!!

 

[martix_agent]

most of them have an allen key screw on the side/bottom of it that you turn to adjust it. Some screw in to raise teh pressure, some screw out to raise teh pressure.

I remember when I used to do that with my defiant. You get less kick if you put the LPR a quarter turn past where it fully cocks and adjust the HPR for velocity. If you have to adjust the HPR too high then you up the dwell by 2 ms until you get the HPR in a good range.

yeah it's a real pain to get it effecient and part of the reason why peopel think ICD sucks. I personalyl like to tinker so it's not sucha big deal to me. especialyl when i can dial it in to whatever I want.
