Act-Labs PC USB problem/question with precision/calibration
Pitou:
Hello,
I have a Act-Labs PC USB gun, but have problems calibrating and shooting precision.
When calibrating I'm at about 1 inch from the screen. Then if I shoot from 1 inch, it works well.
But...as soon as I go back and as I get further and further, the gun is really out of sight. If I shoot in the center, it usually shoot like higher and more on right
What is the max distance I should be from the screen?
Any other suggestions?
Thank you.
Pitou!

my first guess would be that you are shooting through smoked glass, most accuracy problems i have seen are tracked back to this, if so remove it, there is no getting around this (Que large amounts of people screaming "but i have smoked glass and mine works fine" good for you but it doesn't for everyone. If not try another TV, act labs guns are VERY temperamental when it comes to TV's

Yeah, I've had the same problem with mine. It hasn't got anything to do with plexiglass. I had the same problem while I was "test playing" before the plexi got installed. I have the PC gun and it has done it on every monitor I have tried. This is the second gun/box combo I have gotten from Act Labs with the same issue. Sadly, the only way I have found to resolve it is to aim a little low and to the right
Pitou:
Thanks for the reply.
I'm using a VGA monitor 19", no glass at all.
BTW, I noticed that if you hold the gun upside down, it's dead on, not sure why though!
Pitou!

Hmmm.....upside down, huh?
That is interesting. I wonder if you could use the gansta style of shooting?
