    Tuning FX Crown Valve Pin Issue

    Hey, I contacted fx support and they told me it fits as long as I use the new seat as well. Once I sort out the parts (hopefully), I will post an update. Thanks for the interest.

    Tuning FX Crown Valve Pin Issue

    Good morning all, The main question, will the newer model fx crown valve pins fit the older gen fx crown? I have a first gen crown, valve pin has the black derlin on it. Here is why I am asking: I replaced my valve seat with a 6.35 seat. It worked fine except for the following: - When...

    FX Crown Valve Seat Removal

    For the install, I just used the tip of a pen to drop it in the right direction and center, and a small Allen key to push it in a little from different sides then I just used the other side of the pen to seat it.

    FX Crown Valve Seat Removal

    So to close the topic, I wasn't able to get that tool quick enough and the valve seat cannot be pushed from the hammer side as the opening at the hammer side is smaller than the seat ID. What worked for me finally is to lodge my 5.5 pellet probe in it and pull it out. I imagine that got it...

    Tuning FX Crown Pressure Increase = Speed Drop

    It is a first gen crown with a huma reg (not the high pressure version). What I find strange is that it is at 130 and I am only getting 820 fps. Is that ok? Thiught I should be getting around 920 or so I wil see about adjusting the hammer further.

    Tuning FX Crown Pressure Increase = Speed Drop

    Hi My crown shoots JBS MKII .25 great at a very consistent ~820 fps with reg pressure at 130. Any increase to the reg pressure would cause the speed to drop drastically to around 720. Any ideas what is causing this? Hammer not hitting hard enough? Or reg problem? Thanks

    Tuning FX Crown Regulator reseal and Replacement

    So, FX confirmed it is a gen1 rifle. I returned the gen3 for a gen1 but again an issue arise, it came with only 8 springs lol. I contacted huma and they said it should have two bags. I am beginning to hate this and might give up soon. The original springs seem identical. Any idea if...

    Tuning FX Crown Regulator reseal and Replacement

    I bought a huma reg, so would rather replace all of it. Just waiting on a response from fx regarding the generation thing.
