« on: December 05, 2016, 09:01:24 pm »
Hello my first build I had a top gun light gun and it work fine but it almost never got used so for my second build i decided not to get one but now im missing it so i wanted to know if people still use "top guns" and if they work with windows 10 if not can i get recommendation on alternatives keep in mind that its more of a whim than a need so nothing to expensive

ps. English is my second language so sorry for any bad grammar or spelling

I preferred the Aimtrak to the Top Gun.

Held calibration better and you can recalibrate them on the fly.

Dont know if the Top Guns work with w10 though....

Thanks for the advise and yea as far I can tell the Aimtrak is the most popular and it does say it works with windows 10 so I guess that my best option. I was surprises to see I would need to buy a separate  power supply for the recoil but C'est la vie :-\

To bad I liked my old Top Gun 2 it had more buttons and recoil but the Aimtrak look to be in every way a superior product so it looks like im going to start saving my pennies for this upgrade.

ps. Question about the power supply can i plug in any voltage or does it need to be the 36v that they recommend

You can use say 24v but it wont have the same amount of power.
They recommend 36v 3A
