yes it is but its a waste cause cyclone can only feed 15 bps reliabily, and so it'll only add like 2 bps to ur e grip -------------

The board has been out. It's made by Wicked Air Sports. It will make your electronic tippmann go 30bps. But it's useless for the A-5 because cyclone it maxed out at 17bps. So if you buy the WAS board for it then you are paying like 100 bucks for 2bps which to me is a waste of money. It's excellent for the 98c though. Just get a centerfeed and a fast hopper and you'll be rockin. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

The W.A.S. board (Wicked Air Sports) does not come out till March 1st or so w.a.s. says on their site. The new board will have a adjustable cap up to 30bps and still keep all the same firing modes as the E-Grip. They also say its only reliable up to 17bps on a A-5. They say anything above 17bps you'll start skipping. I have heard Tippmann is working on a kit to upgrade the cyclone, but i can not get any kind of info on that from Tippmann. I am getting a new w.a.s. board for my A-5 the day it comes out and will post some testing info on it then. Their are some trick mods you can do to get alittle more out of your cyclone, i will play with the system and test the bps i can get and report it. ------------- My A-5 : http://img114.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img114&image=a5withdesciptionsnew18xu.jpg">

Hm.. After getting past the caps lock being stuck and needing to translate some of the words back into normal english I still can't say I even come close to agreeing with this post. The only time my A5 ever chopped was before I had the upgraded cyclone combined with extreemly brittle paint (couldn't even use a revy hopper with it). I've seen the RT and e-grip maxed out and used the RT myself. So either you've never used either and are making it up, had some really crappy paint and an old cyclone, or have something else wrong with your marker that you need to send to tippmann for repairs. I doubt its the last option. |

yea like said above it is suppose to come out march 1st. I think the only way to get full effect of the board on a a5 would be to make it a centerfeed and take off the cyclone , but thats deciving(sp) the point of the a5. Now if you got the for the 98custom just put a centerfeed on it and it will be good. just my 2 cents -------------

| ^ yeah, first youd have to go through the milling process which is a pain in the butt, then spend about a $100 bucks on vert feed, the $140 bucks for a halo with some kind of faster board, then youd have to pay $100 bucks for the actual WAS board. it would cost a lot of money. the biggest issue would be not messing up the milling or the vert feed. |

I have heard of peeps using LPK hoses on the cyclone with a HPA setup and getting faster than 17bps. ------------- My A-5 : http://img114.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img114&image=a5withdesciptionsnew18xu.jpg">

Well, i can max out my E-Grip very easy. A E-Grip is capped at a max rate of 15bps. I can personally walk much faster than that, but im held back by the gun (e-grip board). ------------- My A-5 : http://img114.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img114&image=a5withdesciptionsnew18xu.jpg">

tat would be cool if u could make a center feed and keep the cyclone on so like that and another hopper would work to gether but just now figuring out that it would shove 2 balls in at the same time ......never mind but that would be cool ------------- anti: flatline egg 2 fender guitars cyclone xbox live gamertag:fall3n 5nip3r steam tag:fallen sniper ADD ME!!!

yea and an e bolt and a $100 hopper and a center feed, with all that money u can buy yourself an auto cocker. the board is adjustable from 10-30 BPS. yes it is a rip off for the a-5cause it wll only add 2 or 5 bps at the most. but if u want to spend that much money on a 98 custome and the board then go ahead. or u can just buy the 98 pro wen tippmann releases it and then get the board and hopper it should save u a couple hundred bucks. yea tippmann will be releasing the 98 pro and A-5 pro sometime mid march. ------------- A-5 Flatline E-Grip Tapco T-6 stock JCS Duel Trigger JCS Universal BiPod Core Remote 88ci/4500psi Crossfire R-5 Hopper Apex Barrel Hot Shot red dot Lapco offset Spec Ops A5-A2 grip |
