Sharoff,

There is a guy on Ebay from Greece who made a drop-in board (I think with some help with a guy from the YF) for the MCT-type Daystates. He has one for the MK3 also. Looks like he used an Arduino Pro as the brain and re-used the existing factory components, You can ask him to send you the manual or PM me with your email and I can send a copy that I received around a year ago.

I have an MVT that has a built-in chrono, and his board would require for me to deactivate the chrono. My factory setup works fine, and the chrono is the main feature I like in my MVT (besides that it handles like Cadillac) so i did not buy one of his boards. But if the chrono ever fails I will consider, because he is willing to work with you to revise the code for custom functionality (within certain limits).

Question about your Airwolf setup: Is there a gap between your shroud and the breech? Or it's snug against the breech and providing some rigidity to the free-floating barrel? Do you think a barrel band (which I am told not supposed to touch the barrel) could be useful for accuracy?

Scott_MCT,

Our stock boards are designed to be tuned to whatever we want. And AoA will reprogram your Hi and Low to whatever power your want - for about the price of this board plus the cost of shipping the gun (add insurance) to and from AoA.

My degrees are in physics and microprocessor based design (I used to create boards like this) so I'm happy to play with it. Worst case scenario is I put stock board back in.

I find the idea of 40, 19.8 and 11.8 fpe to be desirable.

fe7565 I installed the custom board in a 177 Airwolf. What caliber is yours? The 177 now shoots from 10 to 27 fpe. Very accurate with 16.2 and 13.4 JSB's. If your board ever fails the custom board install is pretty easy and the seller gives 1st rate customer service.

Going to post a video on you-tube with the custom board in the next couple of weeks weather permitting. I will post a link in the PCP section.

"Eddy1840"I already order a new pellet probe O ring

My problem was with the pellet probe o-ring. Also, if you want to go in deeper check to make sure the breech screws are not loose.

To Sam63: I have a .22, caliber but since it's an MVT model I just dial in the pellet velocity (between 500-1200fps) regardless of pellet weight. It takes about 4-8 shots for the rifle to adjust the speed then it stays set there.

To Airwolf owners: Is there a gap between your shroud and the breech? Or it’s snug against the breech and providing some rigidity to the free-floating barrel? I left about a 1/16" gap but I believe it supposed to be up against the breech.

"sharroff"I just pulled the trigger and ordered it. I will do a review after I've installed it and had some time to compare it to the factory board.

Sam63 and Sharroff, I would be curious to know once you played around with the board how it lends itself to customizing. Does the seller allow access to the software on the Arduino? Would be great to be able add menus for audible low-pressure warning like the newer MCTs; and "per shot efficiency calculation/average"; "remaining shots"; "temperature compensation"; maybe even hold-over calculation based on your selected pellet and the velocity derived from the FPE setting.
