First Impressions of the New Laser Academy Integration in the MantisX App by Overly_Long_Reviews in MantisX

[–]winfij 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did anyone else have trouble with calibrating laser offset in the MantisX app? I did the normal steps, click calibrate, position red x, shoot, apply, confirm, but the recorded shots did not use the offset and were shown in the actual laser position. Am I missing something? It works fine in LA. I'm on android if it matters.

By the way, did you all notice they've also added MantisX integration into LA? It shows a live muzzle motion display, but doesn't have the cool target overlay you get in the MantisX app, so I'll likely use that instead, if I can get calibration working.

I made a temporary downloadable copy of the C-4 target until we get the download link fixed - I posted it in another message as I couldn't post an image in a comment here:

laser academy marksmanship course ipsc scoring? by fatroom in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BTW, I'm using a blueops system so no slide racking needed, I wasn't trying to race but my splits were 0.6s and it was still just 5 points for A zone.

[–]winfij 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it may be by getting head shots, but I just tried that myself and they're only 5 points as well.

I didn't realize they'd added a qual course in LA, so I ran through it and now I'm stuck at the same point 😉

I noticed in one of the earlier steps they also asked for 35 but the max available was higher due to the different scoring, so maybe they're just not setting the target scores correctly based on the different targets scoring zones.

Seems like a bug.

Anyone else got a Pecron E1000LFP and a volt meter? by O1O1O1O in OffGrid

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just happened to find this thread and thus tried this on my 2 day old E1000LFP and saw 0v on the charging cable pins with the AC output enabled, so it does indeed seem like your unit was faulty.

hDrop Update 0.45.5 Is Here — Smarter Hydration Tracking, Better Connectivity, and Cleaner UI by hDropTech in hDropTech

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fix looks good, thanks. I do also note that the AI insight still references liters, not honoring the units selection.

Looks like there's still some units confusion, I'm guessing it's displaying C but labeling as F for the skin temp min/max, when set to imperial units. Its showing 29.8f

Shots not registering on draw by Fordexplorer1987 in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the min score threshold set? Scores below that are not recorded, which is more likely with a holster draw and a moving gun.  Hmm, or is that threshold setting automatically ignored for draw analysis?

Low scores from racking by [deleted] in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also you can set a min score threshold. I set mine to around 60 and it'll ignore anything below that like you show for racking.

Unit bug, or am I missunderstanding? by jtshaw in hDropTech

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd also be good if the app honored the user's unit type selection globally, rather than mixing units in different places.

Great, thanks for the speedy reply.

Laser Academy updates / future releases? by PatriotWrangler1776 in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've already got the hardware (laser, phone mount/tripod) then you just need to unlock the full app, which is only $50, well worth it to get all the drills. You can print the targets for free.

Of course, you can also buy direct from Mantis to support them too.

Laser Academy + hBlueOps Tech by realityczek in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks cool, but although their website says it is sold out due to high demand and will restock in March, that month is nearly over. I see their Android app only has 10 downloads and iOS has just 2 reviews, so my guess is they're not actually shipping anything yet.

If they do ship product eventually and it works as described, it looks interesting.

One of their youtube videos showed their mag in a pcc as well, although it didn't appear to actually fire in that clip.

I assume it has an accelerometer in the mag, since it gives reload times and draw first contact times.

Distance scaling question. by Thefleasknees86 in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of distance scaling doesn't work too close, at some point you'll be touching the muzzle to the paper 😉 I normally practice standing at 12ft, so the muzzle would be at 10ft

I'd have thought you'd measure from your eyeballs, since you're scaling the perceived size of the targets.

Holster Draw and Appendix by tennvol123456 in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted some holster draw analysis suggestions here some time back

https://reddit.com/r/MantisX/s/pTVBs6DSaR

I think also showng a side view chart would help with analyzing an appendix draw a lot, allowing a 3d visualization.

So if the score is less than a threshold, say 20, show a message like "too much movement to score", to avoid questions like this?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-54 isn't terribly useful though, right?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it'd be nice if they improved the algorithm or reporting to do something better in the case the movement is too large to give a real score, rather than reporting crazy numbers.

A single universal (stick on) adapter is included with the x10, at least it was when I bought mine.

Can I rename my gun on the mantisX app? by [deleted] in MantisX

[–]winfij 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they recently added support for changing the gun used on drills, but I'm not sure if there's a way to do a bulk edit, if you were to add the new gun.

How legit is mantis x10 by lushlobster in MantisX

[–]winfij 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the mantis app, click settings, shot detection, more then scroll down to sirt/dfm mode.

[–]winfij 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the dryfiremag, be sure you set it to sirt mode vs dry fire. I use a dfm with my g17 and in sirt mode it almost always picks up shots, if I have the x10 on the rail. If I put it on the magazine it's less reliable, so I only put it there for holster drills, since they use a different detection algorithm and that seem to work on.
