    Orcair chrono

    (Full disclosure - this is a competitor product for me) I did a full deep tech review on a very similar (looks identical - but different brand off Ali) muzzle mounted Chrony - 40min video if you cant sleep. Overall it wasnt too bad - great fit & finish, if it works - then it'll be ok Issues -...

    Chronograph distance

    2-3fps @ 1,000 is pretty good - not a huge amount of Chronys will be offering that. Make the distance the same in/out of the stock for starters, then possibly isolate the chrony - put it on another bench & fix it to something heavy is possible. While it may sound silly (my job is to test...

    Chronograph distance

    Quick reminder - 2% of 1,000fps = 20fps so a few percent is a HUGE amount when it comes to Chrony's working @ 1,000fps hmnmm Is the rifle fixed? If the stock is adding weight - removing it could be causing it to jump back a little & taking a bit out of the projectile. Is the chrony isolated...

    Chronograph distance

    ok - it could be down to the Chronographs resolution & is actually giving "valid" results. If you cant sleep - watch my 40min tear down vid of another barrel mounted chrony, specifically this part: You can see that it cant tell the difference between 995 & 1000fps as it doesnt have the...

    Chronograph distance

    hmmm I dont think its muzzle blast - when you trigger the sensors from muzzle blast its typically in the 1300-1400fps range. What model of chrony is it? I'd say it could be more from the muzzle blast making the chrony move or vibrate slightly - put a bit of paper in front of it - or tape a bit...

    I Love 3d Printing (RTI Mora/Nate Chrony)

    How dare you! :ROFLMAO: Glad you found a better solution - with the materials & threads, I always use something with some flex. Vibrations over time & installing/removing will absolutely lead to cracks in the threads as they're pretty sharp angles & fine details. PCTG would be perfect

    Best chronograph for PCP

    The UK guys were saying that SKAN are no longer manufacturing (https://airgunforums.co.uk/threads/where-to-buy-skan-chronograph-%F0%9F%A4%94.107219/), so as far as *I know* there is only 1 Chronograph that has any certification/calibration & could claim accuracy. Aim small did a very...

    Buck rail Nate chrony video

    reviews... incredibly hard to get... prolly sent out $5k of kit & mostly let downs & just dont return emails after agreeing to. also a LOT of reviewers are controlled by the large manufacturers - "i review brandX, this is a competitor, so i wont review it". rule of thumb - over 50-100k subs...

    Buck rail Nate chrony video

    No - the Chrony itself is a Wi-Fi hotspot & serves the web page from itself. There is not external internet or Wi-Fi connection required. As an option - you can connect the NateChrony to an existing Wi-Fi network, that will allow your device (mobile/tablet) to remain connected to the internet...

    Help with FX pocket chronograph

    ohhh interesting point with the mount. When I do my calibration work - I mount 2 Chronys back to back & fixed to each other. Through testing (putting multiple calibrated chronys back to back) its clear the mounting is CRITICAL - any vibration or wobble *really* throws off the results & makes...

    Help with FX pocket chronograph

    Lithium... Careful - there's a few different types of lithium batteries. There's rechargable lithium 3.7v cells - typically marked as 14500 There's ones that are usb recharged & provide 1.5v - they're expensive but really good There's also primary (non-rechargable) lithium 1.5v - have a higher...

    Xt x3006 chronograph

    Air rifle pellets can be a *lot* harder for detection than airsoft, so the reliability of Airsoft kit can be hit & miss. If you're pushing 22cal+ slowly (500-700fps) - probably okish in a lot of cases xt-3006 - i've seen reports of issues with detection of .177's (UK forums) I havent seen...

    DIY Chronograph

    It took me a year to get my bugs out - i cant emphasize enough how hard it is to do the required measurements with the required precision. Using a generic operating system/libraries will typically lead to tears, low level programming is really required with a real in depth knowledge of the...

    I make chronographs - recently got into the industry... honestly its a horrible, horrible industry to be in Awesome application, interesting that they did it back in the 40's/50's - yet Magneto have a current patent that covers... something? Would this encroach on the existing magneto patent...

    Tuning CHRONOGRAPH ACCURACY ?

    Full disclosure - i make chronographs, and I have independent certification from the National Measurement Institute to claim that mine "is accurate". Vid here of me banging on: There's no way of knowing, unless the manufacturer has a process in place to calibrate the chronograph against a...

    How accurate is your chronograph?

    If you use a muzzle mounted system - all of that is taken care of. These days its probably worth noting about the "types" of chronographs available, and the drawbacks etc... Depending on what you're doing - the type is probably going to be most important before a particular brand. Muzzle...

    How accurate is your chronograph?

    The Oehler 33 has a 1 Mhz clock, with 3ft spacing 3000fps vs 3003fps is pretty much exactly 1Mhz! 1Mhz is pretty slow & limiting, however it overcomes that with very wide spacing between the sensors. If we're splitting hairs with diabolo pellets - could be a slight issue. Larger devices (can)...
