Pro Settings

If, for any reason, you cannot see the images below - please click here.

Not everyone can play on a PRO TEAM. So, not everyone will have the backing of a manufacturer who ensures that their equipment is tuned to perfection and is fitted with the latest upgrades and modifications. To ensure YOUR Angel is always performing to its potential WDP is always advancing its technology to help you achieve perfection.

With these upgrades, settings and modifications you can be sure that your gun is in race-shape and set up exactly the same as our very own sponsored PRO teams Stockholm Joy and Miami Rage. See the table right for the settings used by Joy and Rage >>>>>>>>>

Pressure Set-up

Wherever adjustments may be required it is important to have all pressures set correctly. To do this, first set the in-line reg out-put to 270psi using the exhaust valve pressure gauge (see pic). Adjust pressure output up or down using the velocity adjuster screw until an output of 270psi is indicated on the gauge.

Once the in line reg has been set the LPR can be adjusted, this is done by adding/removing shims to increase/decrease the pressure and verifying the correct pressure of 60psi has been achieved using the LPR pressure test gauge (see pic below) and is covered in detail in your Angel 1 owners maniual P.24.

EXHAUST VALVE STEM

If your Angel 1 is suffering from a low velocity and your pressures are correct as per the pressure set up instructions your exhaust valve stem may be worn/damaged and in need of replacement, if the seal on the stem has become worn, stretched, or extruded it will not open correctly and will restrict the flow of air. Be careful to install your new exhaust valve correctly. If a barrel leak is detected after changing the valve this means he valve has not seated correctly.
To correct this simply dial the pressure up by turning the velocity adjustment screw counter clockwise to increase the pressure fed into the Angel, then fire the Angel approx 10 times, This will cause the seal to seat correctly and will eliminate the leak instantly.

To increase flow through the exhaust valve the face seal has been modified from its original form. The angle of the sealing face has been changed to a flatter, less angled seal, which improves shot to shot consistency. The modified stem's different sealing faces are easily recognizable in the images right.

Eye Cover Straps

A thicker eye cover strap has been introduced in conjunction with the self cleaning eye bolts, These thicker eye covers are required to
prevent the gas blast from the bolts porting holes from flexing the eye covers and dislodging the detents. The thicker armed straps are recognizable by their thicker and stiffer arms and a different identifyier code (new code = •A) located on the reverse of the eye cover strap as shown in the images below.

New identifier code Thicker eye cover arms

1. Remove the volume chamber maintenance plug with a 4mm Allen key.
2. Slide a blunt instrument beneath the 'A' icon on the left hand eye cover (ensure you do not insert the instrument too far). Lever outthe eye strap and retain open - as shown in 3 (we have used sinple piece af card)
4. Repeat steps 2 + 3 for the right hand eye strap.
5. Gently push the reverse of the cards simultaneously, and the eye strap will slide off.

DENT IN BODY OR BREECH

If the Angel 1 is shot without a bolt installed the gas blast can blow the breech block open causing it to impact on the side of the body of the Angel. This will not only leave a tell tale bruise on the side of both the body and the breech block, but can also bend the breech pins used to secure the block into position. If bent sufficiently, the breech block and body will be forced out of alignment with each other.

breech misalignment can result in bolt stick and can only be corrected by replacing the breech block pivot pins. In response to this issue, the material used to produce the breech pivot pins has been changed to a high grade surgical stainless steal, which is Incredibly strong and will not oxidize or corrode. This will eliminate the possibility of pivot pins bending should the Angel be shot without the bolt being in place.

Examples of the tell tale dent in the body and block can be seen in the image above. Should your Angel exhibit such marks the breech pins may well be bent and require replacement. The prcedure can quickly carried out at your local Angel Service Center.

ADB fingers

During product trials and tests it was noted that occasional double balling occurred when firing with small bore paint.

As a result the diameter and overall length of the ADB finger was increased to prevent this. To easily identify the change between the 2 types of ADB finger a different colour pigment was added to make the newer slightly wider and longer easily identifiable. The original ADB fingers were blue the longer and wider ADB finger is red, samples of both can be seen below.

If you are experiencing double balling it may be that you require the later red ADB fingers.

Lighter Hammer

A lighter hammer was introduced after feed back and trials by NPPL pro teams Miami Rage and Stockholm Joy to further reduce the already minimal kick and to aid with gas efficiency. These new light-weight hammer/ram assemblies are now included as standard on all new Angel 1's and whilst not critical to your markers overall performance it is an upgrade and can be purchased from any good Angel dealer or direct from WDP.
An example of the older hammer and the newer version can be seen right.

ASA + GRIP FRAME

Although the ASA/Grip frame are connected via a dove tail mechanism there are limits to how far forwards or backwards the ASA can be positioned. If the ASA is set too far forwards/backwards the forces used to clamp the ASA in place become uneven. The user could over-tighten the clamping screws in an attempt to get the ASA secure on the rail, this will bend the ASA body and eventually crack the dove tail mount off the frame. In order to prevent damaging the ASA or grip frame users should note the correct and incorrect mounting positions shown in the images below.

Correct location of ASA

Correct hammer position

Please note the correct position of the hammer when closing the breech (see illustration below). The hammer should be positioned as far back as possible. Failure to ensure the hammer is in the correct position and the bolt not correctly located could result in:
1. A leak emanating from the ram.
2. Damage to the block and body if fired.

Software Modifications

The Angel 1 incorporates a USB reprogramming port to allow the user to keep up to date with the most current software available without the need to visit a pro shop or the need to pay for often expensive upgrade software.

A list below provides a full history on each of the software versions and what was upgraded or corrected as each new version is released.
