The Wyvern Closed Bolt BETA
Open Beta Testing (Jan 26 - ongoing)
Closed bolt engines are the pinnacle of accuracy, but are often complex, high cost mechanisms with pneumatically actuated nozzles, hurting your wallet, and your air efficiency.
The wyvern uses an electrically actuated nozzle, providing maximum mechanical simplicity. It uses our wireless FCU, providing the most features. It wastes no air, providing maximum air efficiency.
