In this video i will be installling every possible part of the new Impact M3 on to my Impact MKII and lots more information to make your MKII compete with the new M3
Shout out To you @Airbuks for making this video to us Folks that would like to stick with the MK II, on what upgrades we can do. Now thinking seriously on getting the Bigger plenum for mine. As always great in depth on How To video. Big Thanks! 👌🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
Great video , love the fx platform I nearly bought the mk11 when I first started to look at the Fx impact But decided to go with the M3 instead as easier to tune, Just waiting on the ronin to turn up hoping today thanks for all your help been great 👍 Keep these coming they are the best videos around informative and easy to understand..
Mahalo for your outstanding videos. Your explainations and visual guidance of removal and install are greatly appriciated. Thank you also for showing what parts of the M3 can be fitted on to the MK2 and earlier FX Impact models.
Thnx again I will definitely get this upgrade kit for my Impact thanks again for your work that you are doing so we can upgrade even now our FX Impact's to an Impact 3; without paying another $2,200.00 for a new one. thnx again Airbuks.
Best communicator out there, no doubt about it!!! Very professional vid. But we’re still waiting the Leshiy2 review!!! Please don’t forget to do it. Many thanks. And keep working like this.
Thx so much for the support 🙏🏻 I haven’t forgot about the L2 shooting video but I had some issues ( weather /covid / air supply etc )to get out there and shoot 🙈. Still have a few shooting videos planned 👍🏻
Wowaa wonderful work I didn't watch out for this video at first but now, you're really good at this job, thank you for all your explanations, as always ✊✊👏👏👏👍👍👍
@@Airbuks also thanks for the tip regarding contacting FX should I run into an issue putting the new plenum valve tube end into the Impact. I encountered this issue and I contacted FX and the vendor that I bought the upgraded kit from. Now it's just a waiting game for them to reply back to me on a solution.
Hi my man I really appreciate your videos. You have taught me a lot. If your objective is to help your fellow air gunners. Your doing a great job. I am asking for your opinion not criticizing. Just to be clear. Newman is the head technician here at Fx USA. In North Carolina. He stated in a new video for the m3 impact. That the perfect valve rod adjustment for the mk3 is 6mm. And for the mk2 impact. 5.7 mm. That at the old recommended measurements really took too much of the adjustment room. The old recommended measurements. Left us with really a tiny room to work with. And that his recommended specks. Give the rifle. A lot more valve rod for tuning. Plus with the new power wheels we can now actually use all the numbers. Do you have any thoughts that you might add I’m not trying to cause any problems. Newman is the person who recommended you to me. So I have been a subscriber since then. And I really respect the both of you and your knowledge. I’m only curious. Thank you and please keep these awesome videos coming. One more. Point. No one has ever said that if your starting to rebuild your rifle. That it is vital to have a good source of air pressure. I had a bad week and my rifle James and my compressor caused a fire. I was struggling to repair the orings I couldn’t get them to seal. I had to figure out on my own. That it is extremely difficult do do this with a hand pump. Hahah I fought with it for a couple months. I bugged the crap out of Newman. Who’s now a friend. Haha I had it right all along.
Hi mate , thanks for the support 👍🏻 Regarding the measurement as I use in my videos is as they come standard from the factory 😉 but you can play around with this a lot and there isn’t actually a perfect measurement . If you get it down to 6mm or even a touch lower you can get more power out of it , if you go above 6.5 mm you lose some power on the top end in my experience. I like to have all my valve C1 to be at 6-6.5 mm as it isn’t near the limit of both sides. If you go below the 6mm you might get more power out of the setup as te valve stays open a touch longer but you also risk it not returning properly and causing issues. It’s fun to play around with how far you can push the limits but in my videos I don’t want to explode or show this as I don’t want people to damage there setups because they followed my instructions 😉
Thx for the support 👍🏻 I ordered the parts true my local FX dealer , they don’t have them in stock usually but it can be ordered straight from the factory
This is the last item I need to purchase to get as close to the M3 as I can go . The MKII is shooting so well I won’t convert over until I get a leak . Thanks for the tutorial.
@@Airbuks when I purchased mine it leaked right out of the box , My MKII and I have become very acquainted with how she works . 😁 Mine was the generation 5 MKII and the last before the M3 came out . By the way , the carbon fiber sleeve works like a champ .
@@Airbuks you should cover this as well for an upgrade , I like it much better than the original on the MK1 & MKII . czcams.com/video/kLeOA5_7Ua0/video.html
Excellent video, as allways-question: is there any of those upgrades here, that can NOT be done on a early MK1 with the original smooth twist barrel in .22&25 cal. Thanks 🙏👍🇸🇪🔫
Thanks for the input regarding the 720 power plenum problem to be fitted on some of the FX Impacts. As you know mine was one of them. Unfortunately I didn’t wait for your video to be released in order to learn about your advice to contact the FX support service and ask for the proper part to be sent to me. Instead I have sent back whole 720 plenum kit to the supplier, in this case Krale, which is now taking care of it. I just don’t know how long would it take for them to send me back the kit, I hope it doesn’t take too much longer. Again thank you very much for your great work doing all these very helpful and supportive videos.
Thx for the support mate , I made this video to inform people about that issue. But more important that FX will help you out if you encounter that problem . Was krale going to machine it or are they requesting that part maybe from FX
Hi, Krale was supposed to replace it for the correct part but it turned out they’ve sent me back another wrong part so still with the exact same problem. I’ll try to contact now FX support as per your suggestion. I’ll keep you posted.
I’ve already contacted FX support but they are sending me back to Krale, so no support at all coming from FX as expected. Unfortunately Krale has also given up on trying to send me the right part. All they are offering now is to send my FX Impact for them to try to install it, which is definitely not what I expected. Is there an alternative to get the correct Valve Tube End for my FX Impact X? Thank you
@@toptierairgunner4247 🤔 I suppose you live in Europe if you ordered from krale ? You can always try to contact Airguns Europa in Spain and explain your problem . They have almost every spare part in there website, maybe they can help you out
@@Airbuks thanks for the input, I might ask Emerito Rodriguez from Europe Airguns for this issue, although anything coming from him will be at a cost which is against what I consider it is the right thing to do. I might contact also Rogério Lima from Mundilar Airguns in Portugal, he is also quite knowledgeable on the FX products. I just hope to get this sorted out ASAP. Again, thank you for your help and support Mathias.
Thx mate for the support, you can have a look at krale ( they will order it specifically for you ) Huma ( they have some parts ) Airguns Europe ( they have every possible spare part and kits )
I have tech ? on the powerblock and the 720 plenum upgrade kit for my impact2 you sold me on how do I get a hold of you to solve this issue i'm having with my new valve rod even with the C1 screwed all the way on it measures no less 8.49mm to get my gun right.And yes everything is tight and flush together also I have visual of the of the valve rod through the back hole Sincerely Dave
Thx mate , that choice is up to you but with a few buck you get your mkii worth abit more on the secondhand market and when the time comes you can get the next model 😉
Thanks for a great video , I knew now that I should contact fx to replace the cover since it doesn’t fixed to my gun , but i couldn’t make the little dot in line with the flat spot unless I leave the cover little open which make big air leakage after filling the gun . Also when the cover flush with the body it still open and cause leakage. Could you help please
I suspect the big oring on that cover plate that screws into the plenum. That oring could be damaged or it might be the wrong size 😬 I heard reports from some people that there oring was to small . It should be a 25x2,5mm nbr70
Nice information,do you plan on shooting just pellets because I noticed you didn’t install the slug kit,I did the same thing I just left the slug kit in mine, thanks for the video
Nice upgrades for the MK2. Was there a reason you went with the M3 cocking block? And, do they sell the block as a kit or in individual parts? Have the 720 on order from Huma but have had zero luck in finding the block assembly you installed.
The main reason is that I like the new short throw lever on the M3 block aswel as the new closing with that pin instead of that rubber bal . You can order it at your local FX dealer normally, but FX Airguns Spain has them in stock if you can order from them 🤷♂️
I’m not sure I understand. I was going to buy FX Impact Mark 3 but it’s really expensive in Canada. I found a really good deal on a Mk2. I’m not clear on a few things. Does the Mk2 come with dual regulators from the factory like the MK3 or do you have to upgrade it? Does the power Plenum 720 cc produce more consistent shots and more shots or does it have to be in conjunction with a dual regulator?
I wanted to purchase the FX impact Mark 3 but I'm in Canada with tax it's going to be over $3,000. If I find a Mark II and install the power plenum what advantage would the Mark 3 have and is it much of a difference?
Hi Airbuks, ace informative video thanks. So glad I can upgrade my Mk2. With the power wheel upgrade, will it make the Impact have 16 power setting now? because I know the numbers and letters match powers on the old wheel. Plus do you know whether Fx might be bringing out an upgrade to fit the fine tuning part to go alongside the power wheel? Thanks
Hi , the new powerwheel gives you some more fine steps over the old one but between min (1) and max (16) there is the same amount off adjustment . Regarding the quick tune , that won’t be possible as the M3 is machined different in that area to allow the tuning system
@@Airbuks Hi, Thanks for getting back to me and providing the information. So on the power wheel does that mean power 1 will be the same as say power 8 like on the old wheel but there are more devisions in between them so would be a few more power settings? Oh dear, that's a shame, do you think maybe someone like Saber Tactical could machine an aftermarket part to do the same job as the quick tune? Also I would love to see a separate video on the Huma Air second regulator that screws onto the air bottle, it's my understanding on their website that if I installed it I couldn't use the function of just unscrewing the air bottle as it affects the none return valve on the bottle or something. I was thinking about emailing Huma to see if they could make some modifications to that so we could still just unscrew the bottle with all the air still in it. Thanks
@@fuuf2244 with the power wheel you have the same adjustment range just smaller increments. I am not sure if the could make something like that 🤔 as the M3 block is drilled to have it fit 🤷♂️ As for the Huma regulator indeed you can’t screw the bottle off , I will pass the suggestion to them 😉👍🏻
Is this a 500 mm barrel or a 600 mm barrel? From what I understand if you’re shooting long distances like 300 yards plus the 600 mm barrel has an advantage plus you will get more energy at target as compared to the 500 mm. Do you agree?
Really enjoyed watching your video! A couple of questions for you. You said you had to swop back to the 480cc bottle because the 600mm tuning barrel would not fit, so if you put the huma second reg on this I think is approx 50mm long would you be able to use the 600mm tuning barrel? I have the slug kit on mine will I still be able to use it if I change the plenum? Thanks Adrian.
@@Airbuks I would also appreciate if you could measure if the Huma second reg would fit with the 600 mm tuning barrel, and 480 cc bottle, installed. Thanks again :)
Hi thanks for the great inspiring video! I just want to pick your brain. I installed the 720 plenum, in my mkll, but it leaks as a sill from the cocking block end.... the same can sadly be said for my Power plenum so i am stuck with stock :( I have followed every guide and been soo careful with the o-rings... do u have any suggestions, Thanks :)
Done mine now thanks - but used my old valve spring as the new one looked too strong to me. anyway have you got round to tuning yours yet, I am not seeing any benefits of the 72cc plenum yet
Haven’t come around to that yet ( many things to be busy with 😉 ) but I am planning on doing that tomorrow, maybe I will try to make a video out off it 🤔👍🏻
I was wondering if you saw any difference with your new plenum because I too installed the 7200 72cc Plenum on my MK2 and did not see any noticeable FPS changes I took a notes before I changed it and and notes after and there was no difference then I did a new tune and didn't get anything over what I was normally getting what is your opinion on that?
I still have to test that mate , as soon as the weather clears and I don’t get stuck in quarantaine I should be able and do a video on it in the next few weeks 👍🏻
Had je alles van krale vandaan? Heb zelf ook het plenum en de draaiknop er sinds augustus op zitten, het cocking blok heb ik niet.. Heb je daar een orgineel nummer van ) misschien in de beschrijving toe voegen) en een prijsindicatie. Dat is ook een leuke upgrade (mits betaalbaar) Vond zelf dat krale met de draaiknop vrij duur was in vergelijking met prijzen die ik lees uit Amerika.
Good video as always 👍 One question, I had problems installing the 720 plenum in my mk2, when trying to insert it in the main block, I had to do a lot of force, and now that I saw your video, I think I did it wrong, I think that when I go to uninstall it I will have problems 🤦. Can you send me the link where to order that piece? I am somewhat concerned. Thank you
Thx , as I mentioned in the video there is a batch of impacts out there the have the hole 0.1 mm smaller then most that’s why you had difficulty installing it into the main block . Send a e-mail to the support of FX , they are aware of this problem and will send you a replacement parts that will fit your impact in a normal way 👍🏻
@@Airbuks I sent email to the official FX support and they tell me I have to speak with my distributor here in Spain, the distributor here in Spain tells me i have to push hard 🤷 that you have to do a lot of pressure, I do not see that a logical answer of Skyway, which is the representative of Fx Spain.
@@tomlpnexus I had someone that fixed his with a simple trick , but it’s not without risk . If you take the bold out and thread it in from the opposite site and stick a coin in the slot ( or a washer) then you can use the bolt to manipulate the opening larger and insert the plenum. Be aware if you turn or force it to much you can permanently damage your impact
Depends on where you live , there are a few websites in Europa selling the different kits . But ordering in Europe and sending it out Europe can be extra costly. But your local FX dealer should be able to order them for you
@@Airbuks i live in Egypt and we dont have a local any thing 😂😂 So would appreciate if you can tell me which website can i order it with the cocking kit in the same time hoping that will reduce the shipping coast
@@dr.ramizhegazy2973 Egypte is good then you can take a look on the website of Europe airguns they have every possible spare part listed on there website
You are one of the unlucky once I am afraid 😔 there are a few impacts out there where the ID is smaller . But if you mail you FX dealer and explain the problem FX can provide you with that part that does suit yours
Hi, did you have to install the o rings in the power block? How many? My kit came with 2 different size o rings in one package with 3 rubber balls and another package with 4 o rings the same size but bigger than the 2 in the other package. Thanks
@@Airbuks I figured it out, my kit is an upgrade to the one in your video where the valve is different and the o rings go in the rear block and not on the valve itself. Nice work on your impact and thanks
Hi, do you think it is worth it to upgrade my .30 cal. 700mm barrel FX Impact Mk2 to all the Mk3 upgrades? Performance vs cost etc. Many thanks in advance and Merry Christmas !!!
Hi , the upgrade of the plenum and cf liner sleeve will benefit your 30cal . The rest of the options like the cocking block and powerwheel is more if you would like to have it or not , they have nothing to do with performance
For this you must do a lot of testing as every gun is abit different. Generally you shout pellets between 850-880 fps en slugs 930-960 fps If you watch some of my previous video’s you can find some settings that I found to work well
@@Airbuks omg that must be why i cant get velocity past 475 fps! However I just installed power block and power plenum kit and still velocity is 475 fps with 30 cal 50 gr jsb
@@Airbuks the power dial at max, black valve at 4th line towards barrel exit, reg at 140 bar, using all parts from the power block and plenum M3 upgrade kit. One odd thing i notice is when rifle de-cocked, the hammer set screw assembly to left of power wheel just flops around loosely. When rifle is cocked, that assembly is solid and will not budge at all-no springing feel for and aft.
On the M3, Would you change out the AMP to the Huma Gen 3 Extra High Pressure Reg and the Huma Impact Power Tuning Kit for 35 cal to hunt Boar with? @@Airbuks
Price for this upgrade is 571 Euro if you must buy it yourself in Europe. That is without the installation, but installation is also a great part of the hobby :-)
M3 is dual reg but not this. Technically, no meaning... hihi. Then, you dont use any locktite or any glue on the head of valve rod which may be caused unscrew when you shot.
Normally I do use it on the MKII ( not necessary in the M3 , but there was still enough gunk of the previous loctide inside that it won’t move , but maybe I better explained this aswel in the video 😬 so many details and so easy to miss something
You do not think that with what they are worth they could come out complete, and also you have to be spending continuously to update them and failures such as chargers, regulators in bottle and wait.
🤔? I think you are seeing it wrong . I see it as a good thing that it’s even possible to update a older model to the specs of a newer released model instead of buy a rifle that can’t be upgraded. So I am happy to do so and keep my gun up to spec 🤷♂️ or that’s at least how I look at it
@@Airbuks Thank you for taking care of me, I agree that it is good that it can be updated and if the manufacturer were to bear the costs of the failures even more, Although it seems that having the latest premium more than other values such as stability and reliability and I again remind you of the high value of acquisition, which looks more like a bottomless piggy bank, greetings.
@@sonan7216 it’s all how you approach the hobby , one can be perfectly happy with a gun of a few years ago and others want to have all the latest option 🤷♂️ Airgunning is can or is a expensive hobby if you look beyond the cheap break barrels we know from our childhood 😉
The research and developement is where the money is spent....testing...that has to be made up...tools..machining ..yes its a 100$ gun in matereals lol..still worth it..imho

I wanted to purchase the FX impact Mark 3 but I'm in Canada with tax it's going to be over $3,000. If I find a Mark II and install the power plenum what advantage would the Mark 3 have and is it much of a difference?
Hi Airbuks, ace informative video thanks. So glad I can upgrade my Mk2. With the power wheel upgrade, will it make the Impact have 16 power setting now? because I know the numbers and letters match powers on the old wheel. Plus do you know whether Fx might be bringing out an upgrade to fit the fine tuning part to go alongside the power wheel? Thanks
Hi , the new powerwheel gives you some more fine steps over the old one but between min (1) and max (16) there is the same amount off adjustment .
Regarding the quick tune , that won’t be possible as the M3 is machined different in that area to allow the tuning system
@@Airbuks Hi, Thanks for getting back to me and providing the information. So on the power wheel does that mean power 1 will be the same as say power 8 like on the old wheel but there are more devisions in between them so would be a few more power settings? Oh dear, that's a shame, do you think maybe someone like Saber Tactical could machine an aftermarket part to do the same job as the quick tune? Also I would love to see a separate video on the Huma Air second regulator that screws onto the air bottle, it's my understanding on their website that if I installed it I couldn't use the function of just unscrewing the air bottle as it affects the none return valve on the bottle or something. I was thinking about emailing Huma to see if they could make some modifications to that so we could still just unscrew the bottle with all the air still in it. Thanks
@@fuuf2244 with the power wheel you have the same adjustment range just smaller increments.
I am not sure if the could make something like that 🤔 as the M3 block is drilled to have it fit 🤷♂️
As for the Huma regulator indeed you can’t screw the bottle off , I will pass the suggestion to them 😉👍🏻
Excellent video what height rings you use with your helix? I got that scope on order for my M3..
These are medium height , I like it as low as possible 😉👍🏻
@@Airbuks Merci!
Is this a 500 mm barrel or a 600 mm barrel? From what I understand if you’re shooting long distances like 300 yards plus the 600 mm barrel has an advantage plus you will get more energy at target as compared to the 500 mm. Do you agree?
Really enjoyed watching your video! A couple of questions for you.
You said you had to swop back to the 480cc bottle because the 600mm tuning barrel would not fit, so if you put the huma second reg on this I think is approx 50mm long would you be able to use the 600mm tuning barrel?
I have the slug kit on mine will I still be able to use it if I change the plenum?
Thanks Adrian.
For the Huma regulator I will have to measure that 🤔 but you can definitely use the slug kit , I have one installed in my M3 👍🏻
@@Airbuks where did you get your parts from? Just had a quick look on huma air and all I can find it the power plenum thanks.
@@thaireesj41 you can specially order them true your local FX dealer .
I know FX airguns spain has most of the parts listed on there website
@@Airbuks I would also appreciate if you could measure if the Huma second reg would fit with the 600 mm tuning barrel, and 480 cc bottle, installed. Thanks again :)
@@jonathanasplund4451 sorry mate , I don’t own a Huma second regulator 🤷♂️
Hi thanks for the great inspiring video! I just want to pick your brain. I installed the 720 plenum, in my mkll, but it leaks as a sill from the cocking block end.... the same can sadly be said for my Power plenum so i am stuck with stock :( I have followed every guide and been soo careful with the o-rings... do u have any suggestions, Thanks :)
Contact me on Instagram chat , there we can send fotos and video. Maybe I can help that way
Done mine now thanks - but used my old valve spring as the new one looked too strong to me. anyway have you got round to tuning yours yet, I am not seeing any benefits of the 72cc plenum yet
Haven’t come around to that yet ( many things to be busy with 😉 ) but I am planning on doing that tomorrow, maybe I will try to make a video out off it 🤔👍🏻
I was wondering if you saw any difference with your new plenum because I too installed the 7200 72cc Plenum on my MK2 and did not see any noticeable FPS changes I took a notes before I changed it and and notes after and there was no difference then I did a new tune and didn't get anything over what I was normally getting what is your opinion on that?
I still have to test that mate , as soon as the weather clears and I don’t get stuck in quarantaine I should be able and do a video on it in the next few weeks 👍🏻
Had je alles van krale vandaan?
Heb zelf ook het plenum en de draaiknop er sinds augustus op zitten, het cocking blok heb ik niet..
Heb je daar een orgineel nummer van ) misschien in de beschrijving toe voegen) en een prijsindicatie. Dat is ook een leuke upgrade (mits betaalbaar)
Vond zelf dat krale met de draaiknop vrij duur was in vergelijking met prijzen die ik lees uit Amerika.
Ja Krale zou het voor je moeten kunnen bestellen 👍🏻
De artikel nummers vermeld ik in de video als ik de doosjes open 😉
@@Airbuks dankje, het uitpakken zijn meestal de stukjes die ik skip😜 zal dan nogmaals kijken😁
Does the 720 come with a heavier hammer and heavier spring or are they the same as the regular power plenum version 🤔
The 720 kit comes with the original weight hammer that sits standard in the M3 , not sure how much it weighs 🤔
Huma inline regulator in front and you will have to go with a longer barrel also
Or a shorter bottle 😉
Hi
Does the valve adjuster knob have locking grub screws please?
There are some holes to put screws yes 👍🏻
hi do you need the new mk3 barrel guide to fit the adjustable barrel tuner on the mk11 kind regards adrian sansom
No the barrel tuner will fit on all impact barrels 👍🏻 mkii and M3 barrels are the same
Where did you buy the harmonic shroud? They're on backorder at UA.
I have it from Krale Schietsport in the Netherlands but I live in Europe 😉
Good video as always 👍 One question, I had problems installing the 720 plenum in my mk2, when trying to insert it in the main block, I had to do a lot of force, and now that I saw your video, I think I did it wrong, I think that when I go to uninstall it I will have problems 🤦. Can you send me the link where to order that piece? I am somewhat concerned. Thank you
Thx , as I mentioned in the video there is a batch of impacts out there the have the hole 0.1 mm smaller then most that’s why you had difficulty installing it into the main block .
Send a e-mail to the support of FX , they are aware of this problem and will send you a replacement parts that will fit your impact in a normal way 👍🏻
@@Airbuks I sent email to the official FX support and they tell me I have to speak with my distributor here in Spain, the distributor here in Spain tells me i have to push hard 🤷 that you have to do a lot of pressure, I do not see that a logical answer of Skyway, which is the representative of Fx Spain.
@@tomlpnexus I had someone that fixed his with a simple trick , but it’s not without risk .
If you take the bold out and thread it in from the opposite site and stick a coin in the slot ( or a washer) then you can use the bolt to manipulate the opening larger and insert the plenum.
Be aware if you turn or force it to much you can permanently damage your impact
@@Airbuks Ik denk dat dat een goed idee is. Ik ga het proberen. Dank je wel
Great video as usual 😍😍
Where can i get that upgrading kit ??
Depends on where you live , there are a few websites in Europa selling the different kits . But ordering in Europe and sending it out Europe can be extra costly. But your local FX dealer should be able to order them for you
@@Airbuks i live in Egypt and we dont have a local any thing 😂😂
So would appreciate if you can tell me which website can i order it with the cocking kit in the same time hoping that will reduce the shipping coast
@@dr.ramizhegazy2973 Egypte is good then you can take a look on the website of Europe airguns they have every possible spare part listed on there website
@@Airbuks thank you so much 🤩🤩
24:55 plenum insert OD is fat than original one. how you insert to the block? its 0.18mm extra in OD
You are one of the unlucky once I am afraid 😔 there are a few impacts out there where the ID is smaller . But if you mail you FX dealer and explain the problem FX can provide you with that part that does suit yours
Is there any benefit in fitting the 720 plenum to a sub 12ft lb fx impact m3, and I want to keep it as a 12ft lb
For sub 12 there is no need for it I think but I don’t have much experience with sub12
@@Airbuks thank you for your reply
Hi, did you have to install the o rings in the power block? How many? My kit came with 2 different size o rings in one package with 3 rubber balls and another package with 4 o rings the same size but bigger than the 2 in the other package. Thanks
Are you talking about the power block or about the M3 valving ? As this video is about upgrading the MKII to a M3 kind off
@@Airbuks I figured it out, my kit is an upgrade to the one in your video where the valve is different and the o rings go in the rear block and not on the valve itself. Nice work on your impact and thanks
@@thesnipersnestandmore7461 yes then you have the power block upgrade kit
Do the updates you installed in the mkII will work in the mkI?
Yes I think so , I don’t see a reason why not 🤷♂️
Before i watch let comment advance... I use mkii but i install m3 bottle and etc 16 step power wheel and 1st stage bottle regulator
On the screw at the bottom of the power block is there an o-ring?
If you mean the big screw that holds the valve housing? No , the orings on the valve housing are the seal for that
@@Airbuks ok, thank you
Hi, do you think it is worth it to upgrade my .30 cal. 700mm barrel FX Impact Mk2 to all the Mk3 upgrades? Performance vs cost etc. Many thanks in advance and Merry Christmas !!!
Hi , the upgrade of the plenum and cf liner sleeve will benefit your 30cal . The rest of the options like the cocking block and powerwheel is more if you would like to have it or not , they have nothing to do with performance

Can 20 MOA picantiny rail M3 be installed on mk2? If it can be installed do they sell it?

Hello sir . I would like to tell me a setting to achieve the best possible result in long distance shot in mk 3 impact 25 cal Thank you
For this you must do a lot of testing as every gun is abit different.
Generally you shout pellets between 850-880 fps en slugs 930-960 fps
If you watch some of my previous video’s you can find some settings that I found to work well
Voçês tem algum representante aqui no brasil ?que posamos compra
How come you did not re use the valve rod spring? My MK2 has a spring om valve rod.
Do you have a sub12 ? The sub 12 impacts had a spring on the valve rod inside the plenum
@@Airbuks omg that must be why i cant get velocity past 475 fps! However I just installed power block and power plenum kit and still velocity is 475 fps with 30 cal 50 gr jsb

@@Airbuks the power dial at max, black valve at 4th line towards barrel exit, reg at 140 bar, using all parts from the power block and plenum M3 upgrade kit. One odd thing i notice is when rifle de-cocked, the hammer set screw assembly to left of power wheel just flops around loosely. When rifle is cocked, that assembly is solid and will not budge at all-no springing feel for and aft.

The different part numbers are shown in the video I think , I don’t know them by heart 😉
What is the price please tell us.and where did i get this.
Price for this upgrade is 571 Euro if you must buy it yourself in Europe. That is without the installation, but installation is also a great part of the hobby :-)
Better to sell your MK2 and buy a M3, so you have benefit for the 1st reg and fine hammeradjuster :-) :-)

You do not think that with what they are worth they could come out complete, and also you have to be spending continuously to update them and failures such as chargers, regulators in bottle and wait.
🤔? I think you are seeing it wrong .
I see it as a good thing that it’s even possible to update a older model to the specs of a newer released model instead of buy a rifle that can’t be upgraded. So I am happy to do so and keep my gun up to spec 🤷♂️ or that’s at least how I look at it
@@Airbuks Thank you for taking care of me, I agree that it is good that it can be updated and if the manufacturer were to bear the costs of the failures even more,
Although it seems that having the latest premium more than other values such as stability and reliability and I again remind you of the high value of
acquisition, which looks more like a bottomless piggy bank, greetings.
