Building off of the great work that @DaystateRebel and others brought in the original homebrew fx chrono display thread here:
https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/homebrew-fx-chrony-display.1278760/

I've been working on a new display for the FX Chrono v1 (the one thats on sale now at UA) so I didn't have to use my phone during range days. I wanted something that was larger, visible in sunlight and could export my data after a session. I ended up finding a newer 7.5 epaper (eink) display from Seeed Studio and using that as the base with a built-in esp32c3.



The built-in microcontroller has both BLE and wifi capabilities so its able to connect to the FX Chrono as well as host a basic webserver for setting configuration:



And heres a quick look at the exported csv:


Besides looking for a quick way to reference session data and SD, I wanted the ability to quickly switch between gun and projectile profiles while at the range and see FPE calculations in real time beside the FPS.

Next Steps:
- clean up code and fix a few ble bugs that I've encountered with higher shot counts
- store readings to local disk instead of memory so they are not lost on restart
- reconfigure webserver hosting to utilize its own wifi hot spot
- clean up webui
- clean up code base
- and of course do some more testing at the range!

After I get through the above changes I am happy to post up the code and installation process to get your own v2 display up and running. I am also happy to provide a service to flash the epaper devices with the open source code if it becomes too difficult of a task.

My ask to the community (especially members that have more experience utilizing chrono devices and tuning) is, are there any other features or abilities of your FX chrono that you would like to see implemented or would help in your tuning?

Just received my HW50S from AirgunDepot. After unboxing I noticed this line going around the action area. Almost looks like a tooling mark.

The only other Weihrauch I have is an HW98 and it is immaculate. Curious if this is normal for the HW50S? Thoughts?

Check out this kid disassembling and reassembling his Reximex!

That is one beautiful stock! Your other 2 stocks are also better! Enjoy shooting them.

Adjust your start fill pressure and shoot groups. Start with 2800 psi and adj +/-.

I have 3 PCPs that just have all the O-rings replaced and I need to set the regulator pressure and hammer spring. May I know what the correct process is ?

Thread 'How to do a basic regulated PCP tune - the 95% tune (plus M3 tuning simplified)' https://www.airgunnation.com/thread...he-95-tune-plus-m3-tuning-simplified.1242157/

I’ve had this unit for a couple of trouble free years and just recently I noticed some compressor oil coming through the air drain.
The sound was also very slightly off within the last operating hour.

If anything was different I was filling a large tank from empty and doing it in stages. The run time under load was more like 20min instead of my usual 10min top up. Cylinder did not get too hot to touch.

So I tore it down and so far the only abnormal finding is shreds of plastic (or very hardened elastomer) in the primary cylinder head. (Shown on the towel above the head)



Any idea what this could be? Debating whether to pull pistons and dig into the block.

Thanks, David

Good luck everyone!

Lots of great deals folks, have a look around!

You need a fill adapter. Call AirForce or Pyramid.

Hello firends

Yesterday I received my AEA challenger standart 6.35
But there are problems with the power.
Everything is set to MAX but a H&N baracuda bullet with a weight of 30.86 gr flies with a velocity of only 231m/s which is 53 joules

Why is that?
That's only half the power.

Maybe someone has had a similar problem and solved it ?

The AEA's is most series have had one issue or another. The bolt or side cocking ones usually being the most reliable ones. I've seen the 45's blos the plastic lid from the magazine. Never heard any issues with the challenger, challenger elite, or the Zeus variant.

Ive actually owned a challenger bigbore .357 bullpup and i loved the thing. My wife developed a leaking valve and i had to take time off work and sold it unfortunately to pay the bills. That and a bulldog. Both worked flawlessly

I have never had that problem with my 6M, which is similar. I doubt I would tear the 10 apart until it was due a rebuild, though. I did note that there are two 6M's and a 10 for sale on eBay right now. I have my eye on the 10.

My Brother’s Notos setup for running a 15rd Big Air mag. Sorry I don’t have a photo with the mag inserted. Those are med height rings with 1/2” risers. The mag has a little clearance left, at most a 1/4”

Ahh I see. So in order for me to run the 15round mag, im gonna have to run the high ring mounts. And probably med ring for the 12shot mag. Thanks for the photo and information *OneAcreFarmer

You couldn't. LV class is limited to 12 fpe and HV to 20 fpe. They are shooting .177 cal.

No, I know that Paul.

I was teasing you about out shooting some Rimfire guys on YouTube. That said, most RF’s will out score a .22 air rifle shooting an 18g pellet. No comparison in my mind between a .40g bullet vs. pellet.

The exceptions to the aNovember are the high end .22 AG that are shooting .38 and .40g slugs. ( I.e., Thomas, Scout, Panthera ). We just need to look at past N50 matches to compare.

My real point was looking at the 2023 Worlds Championships, check out the RF scores on the Individual tab.

Incredible.

Thanks for commenting. I am interested!
Would you have any pictures that show this? (I'd be interested in the impact velocity as well — or MV and range.)

Thanks!

These were mostly done with take aim 30gr gr XLHP.















Javelins also have massive expansion

Those Exact's always shoot good, but man they are expensive.

So, trenier airguns usually carries the FX version for $15.99 ill opt for them. Amazon messed up a delivery and gave me a conciliatory Gift card for $50. I ordered these for $26. Considering a tin at any airgun site will.be $19 minimum and then add shipping will end over that. So why not? I can always return or get a replacement sent before I return with amazon

I think the Falcon is made by Sightron with Falcon packaging. I own the Falcon and a Athlon ares gen.2 15-60x56 and a nightforce 12-42x60 BR. That is 20yrs. Old and still like this scope the best out of them all great glass thin reticle, it’s very heavy but a great scope! Last I know they still make this scope and can be bought for around $1200.00 that should tell you something! Draw backs for some is weight and front focal plane adjustment, more accurate than side focus!

Welcome to the Rabbit Hole and good luck.

The Midwest Airgunners matches are usually held on the first Saturday of each month at the Fort Osage Muzzle Loaders Range, 1637 NW 550th Rd, Kingsville, MO. http://mocobps.com/FOML.htm View our Web Site for match information - http://sites.google.com/view/midwestairgunners

We had a good turnout for the September match and a couple of new shooter. The weather was decent and the wind wasn't too bad, thought it did get a little squirrely for the 50 yard match.

Pyramid Air is a site sponsor, however, this thread does not have airgun connection.

Would say yours looks to be the MT010T?

With 50cc plenum and a 18" barrel I would think you should be able to push those pellets well into the low 900FPS with the stock valve.

First thing I'd try is a high flow valve 8mm/5.5mm. AliExpess about $45.

Or the high flow valve kit

https://a.aliexpress.com/_mOW0kxb

70g or 95g hammer from trajectron.com for $45 plus $17 shipping.

Trajectron.com has the high flow valve for $106. Not the extreme flow...

For springs i just bought differing sring rates of the correct length and diameter from AliExpress.

I with the pictured setup and the reg at around 2700psi and the Baracuda were around 1050FPS

Thank you Ratzy!

Impressive. Looks factory. I haven't tried any CF filaments yet. Just got my first PCP, but will likely print stuff soon.

I’m actually in the heat of all this, and am back n forth with utah air as they sold me all the parts for the boss trigger but missed shipping me the main housing and the two side pins.
I wanted to mount this in my crown mk2 in the ST chassis and coming from a fellow team shooter the chassis has to be milled.

So with all of this going on, I’m hoping the mod is worthwhile. I appreciate your input and posting this
