Yakuza Series USB OLED
board for the Angel A1 and A1 Fly. Includes Tengu USB interface, and RF
transmitter harness.
The Yakuza Series USB board for
the Angel A1 and A1 Fly was designed in cooperation with Sly Equipment,
and is the stock board in the new Sly Angel A1 Fly. It includes both a
graphical OLED based display system and full USB 2.0 support. A mini-B
USB port is built right into the board, allowing you to plug it into a
computer running Windows 7, Vista, or XP so you can utilize the Tengu USB interface. Tengu offers the ability to
do secure firmware updates from the comfort of your home or
office, create custom boot screen images, and modify settings. Boot
screens can be imported and exported as bitmap image files, allowing you
to create them in image editing software like Photoshop and easily
share them with friends or teammates. Settings profiles are treated in a
similar fashion, and can be read off your board, saved to a file, and
loaded back into any of your board's profiles or active settings.
OLED (organic
light emitting diode) displays have numerous advantages over traditional
LCDs. They have lower power consumption, higher contrast, and, due to
the manufacturing process, are sealed, making them highly resistant to
vibration and moisture. Unlike LCDs, each pixel of an OLED screen is a
light emitting diode and emits its own light. Power consumption is
directly proportional to how many pixels are lit, making it easy to
view, even in direct sunlight.
All the necessary information is
shown on the OLED screen, including eye status, battery life, current
fire mode and max rate of fire, and a game timer. The settings are also
easily adjusted through the full text based menu system.
The Yakuza Series USB boards
offer enhanced capabilities. A new, faster microcontroller runs at up
to 48 Mhz, and provides integrated USB 2.0 support with standard
off-the-shelf mini-B USB cables. The drivers are built into Windows,
making installation very easy. The asynchronous interrupt based trigger
scan is monitored at up to 12 million times per second. Additional
adjustibility includes finer, more accurate rate of fire, debounce, and
dwell increments, plus specific PSP/Millennium fire mode parameters to
change the semi-start-shots and semi-reset times. 5 user customizable
profiles are now standard, and can be edited through the OLED screen or
with the Tengu USB interface on your computer. The rate of fire range
has been expanded to 5-30 balls per second to ensure compliance with
any league rule changes in the future.
Included is Tadao's industry first anti-breech bounce software,
which helps to eliminate chops when a loader is running low on paint and
can't provide a steady feed rate. RF support is also present with the
inclusion of a dedicated transmitter socket and wiring harness.
The circuit board is the most
important part of any electronic paintball marker, and upgrading it can
enhance all the performance characteristics. Tadao's leading edge Yakuza
Series USB boards provide the user with the ultimate in adjustability
and speed, plus the ease-of-use of the Tengu USB interface so you can update your board's
firmware and modify settings/graphics from home or office.
Note: USB cable is included.
Additional cables are sold separately here. The cable in use is a mini-B to A type, and is commonly found
with digital cameras, Blackberry phones, and other USB accessories, so
you may already have one.
