Re: LP10E misfire

If your original faulty board is green, then a replacement blue board will not work with your trigger unit.
If your original faulty board is red or blue, then a replacement blue board should be fine.
I am sure Steyr Service can advise you best based on serial number.

Re: LP10E misfire

Hi srgfctG Please read this thread, it may help you. https://www.targettalk.org/viewtopic.php?p=331679#p331679 In my case it turned out to be some failing components on the electronic board that caused the problem. I was able to repair the board by replacing those parts. If you have the same issue o...

Steyr Air Pistol Case

Hi All, I am after some help please. I have an old Steyr air pistol case that has seen better days. Can anyone recommend an adhesive they have used to sucessfully re-attach the foam cut out to the green fabric backing. The original stuff seems to be some sort of clear hot melt glue that remains flex...

Re: STEYR LP10e circuit board

This board ended up with me, happy to say it is working again. The local prices the owner said he was being quoted for a replacement board were crazy and importing a board from Europe has its risks (I have a parcel from Buinger missing for a month now, lost by Aus Post) so there was nothing to lose ...

Re: STEYR LP10e circuit board

The same thing happened to me on the red version of the LP10E board, but not as bad as the one you have. Mine would come on but solenoid strike became weaker and weaker after a few shots as the faulty component got hotter until it would no longer fire. It is actually a 100uF-16V low ESR Capacitor no...

Re: Steyr LP10 Suddenly Died...

I gave it back to the student, and it was shooting about 3 inches higher. That seemed odd, but that could be from fixing leakage at the breech seals, although that seemed like a very big elevation difference. He re-zeroed, and shot a nice group. He took a break, and it was suddenly shooting very lo...

Re: Steyr LP10 Suddenly Died...

If you wanted to go down a deep rabbit hole with Steyr regulators there is some great information at https://shooting-the-breeze.com/threads/steyr-regulator-a-before-and-after.41076/ where they have polished the seal on top of the piston to eliminate creep and improve recovery/consistency etc. These...

Re: Problem with LIGHTing on Scatt Basic

Sounds like you have pretty much tried everything but just in case, since you are only at 5m have you adjusted the position of the device to bring it as close as possible to the sight line and/or used the brass screws on the mount to minimise parallax error? I found that when in calibration mode I n...

Re: Problem with LIGHTing on Scatt Basic

Also worth updating to the latest software and firmware if you haven't already (go to About tab in Scatt Basic software). I found I did not need as much light on the target after the update. I'm also thinking of making one of these Scatt light box LB-01 side photo using cheap strip LED's with a dimm...

Yes, the animated target used in my review video (link on previous page) was displayed on a standard LCD monitor, both devices were able to detect the target no problems.

Re: NEW SCATT MODEL???

No Terry, it is the first generation, generation 2 did not exist at the time of the review. Since you clearly appear to be working for Trace from your previous posts on here why don’t you tell us how good generation 2 is? Also I am still waiting for a refund so I can return the first generation unit...

A Chronograph will become your best friend. Slug your barrel, load for target velocity, have fun. and....? What velocity would you recommend for 25m/50m? How much over slug size do you suggest for cast projectiles? Edit: Don't worry, search was my friend.... You can use a slightly slower burning po...

Scatt Basic vs. Trace Comparison / Review

I was a relatively early adopter of the Trace system having owned it for some months now. Over that time I began to have some concerns about the performance of the unit based on anomalies I observed while using the Trace device and some less than convincing responses from the Trace team to my questi...

Re: NEW SCATT MODEL???

Since the average daily cost of the various Scatt units depends on their unit life, I would like to know what life to expect from a given set...

Re: NEW SCATT MODEL???

Well, with my Trace unit using the latest software, auto target detection feature, 5/5 detection quality and Scatt simulated AP10 target at 10m and 80mm/s the results are very similar to scatt_manufacturer's video albeit more centred on the target. The unit also seems to be more consistent after a b...
