It has been thoroughly tested and is certified to be in full working order, ready for the field.
The Ego 11 is the ultimate poppet valve gun, and this meticulously rebuilt model is ready to dominate the field in Canada! Following the trends in paintball and being able to react and respond to them in a way that benefits the player in a positive way is a difficult thing to achieve. Being able to provide a high-performance paintball gun that is all things to all players is even harder. Planet Eclipse has always prided itself on being able to react quickly, give the customer what they want, when they want it, and to give users the flexibility to have their paintball marker just how they like it.
This philosophy has never been more evident than it is in the Eclipse 2011 Ego.
Over the past 18 months you will have seen Planet Eclipse taking steps to help improve the feel of the marker during play, as well as to improve the ability of the markers to handle super brittle tournament paint. Controlling the speed of the bolt in any competitive paintball gear is the key to achieving improved feel, reduced sound signature, and more gentle handling of the paintball within the marker. The more gentle the acceleration and deceleration of the system, the smoother the marker feels.
But of course doing so does have its drawbacks. For example by slowing the cyclic speed of the marker, you also reduce the rate of fire. As with many things in life there is a trade off. As we look to improve the feel of the marker on one hand, we inhibit it in terms of outright speed on the other.
But what if you want your 2011 Ego to shoot fast like Egos used to shoot? If the marker is tuned for smoothness, how do you get the speed? What if you want to shoot 15bps but want it smooth? What if you only care about shooting 12bps because that’s all you can use with PSP rules but want it to be as smooth as possible? How can you have all these things in one solitary Planet Eclipse Ego?
Well until now, it just wasn’t possible without making major, time-consuming physical changes to the pneumatic system of the marker, or even re-machining parts to allow different dynamic characteristics of a marker. But not now. Not any more.
The Eclipse 2011 Ego comes equipped with an industry first. A bespoke solenoid manufactured by MAC Valves USA that incorporates twin flow control devices. Etched into the side of the solenoid body is easy to make out the two incremented scales. Below the scales are two one-quarter turn Solenoid Flow Controls. These Solenoid Flow Controls, fitted with pointer and limit stops, can now be used to independently control both the forward and rearward speed of the Rammer. For the first time ever in a poppet marker the user can now tune the speed, feel and rate of fire of their own used paintball marker with a simple twist of an adjuster. In the time it takes you to turn off your tourney lock, the Ego11 can be switched from a high speed, max ROF, uncapped, free-for-all machine, into the softest, gentlest, smoothest shooting capped PSP poppet you have ever felt. Or how about absolutely anything in between?! The analogue adjustment means infinite control of the speed of the bolt and rammer in either direction giving unprecedented influence over the dynamic characteristics of each electronic paintball gun. It looks like you really can have your cake and eat it with the Planet Eclipse 2011 Ego Paintball Marker.
