Anyone put an Aimtrak module in a Happ .45? Tips?
« on: October 23, 2015, 09:20:09 pm »
I just got my Aimtrak modules in and realized that I have no idea how I'm gonna get them in the guns.  Has anyone done this? If so, do you have any tips?

Mine was just for experimentation, but I removed the happ lense and mounted the aimtrak in the end of the barrell.  I had to file some slots on each side of the hole in the end of the barrel.  It's not pretty from the front, but it works.

 I ditched the original cable and just have the usb cable coming out the bottom.

My place is in disarray at the moment, but I'll post a pic later if I can get to it.

As said, I put this together more to experiment with than to use.  I also have the recoil hooked up. The plan was to get a brand new shell and do a nicer job if I liked it.  IR guns just don't compare to the old crt guns IMO though, so I didn't add it to the cab.
