Airgun enthusiasts demand precise data on their rifle's velocity and power, and this requirement becomes paramount with the versatile FX Airguns, known for their tunability, caliber adaptability, and barrel liner changes. To unlock your rifle's full potential, a chronograph is an indispensable tool.
In the world of chronographs, you typically face two choices: overly complex, high-priced units that offer more than you need, or budget models that are antiquated, cumbersome, light-sensitive, and prone to breakage.
FX, committed to enhancing the customer experience, has embarked on a mission to bridge this gap and offer a high-quality chronograph at an affordable price point.
Enter the FX Pocket Chronograph v2 - a wireless radar chronograph that combines portability with advanced features. This innovative device communicates seamlessly with your smartphone via Bluetooth. The dedicated app, compatible with both iOS and Android, provides real-time feedback on your firearm's velocity in feet per second, stores exportable shot strings, and calculates muzzle energy in either foot-pounds or joules.
Users can create profiles for different rifles, calibers, and pellets, ensuring seamless compatibility with all your airgunning equipment. Anticipate future updates to the app, promising further versatility and functionality.
Notably, the Pocket Chronograph isn't limited to high-powered airgun use. It accurately tracks projectiles traveling under 1250 FPS, making it perfect for archery, CO2 rifles and pistols, airsoft, slingshots, paintball, and more.
Utilizing radar technology, the FX Pocket Chronograph works reliably in all weather conditions, including the darkest nights. Unlike conventional chronographs, it operates independently of external light sources.
Using the chronograph is a breeze - just position it below the muzzle, open the FX radar app on your smartphone, and start shooting. The app will promptly display your shot string and can even audibly announce the results. Say goodbye to your old, cumbersome chronograph and effortlessly slip this compact device into your gun case or even your pocket!

How does the FX Pocket Radar technology differ from traditional chronographs? Unlike traditional "light gate" chronographs that require projectiles to pass through a specific frame, these units use Doppler radar to track movement, allowing them to work in any lighting condition without external light kits.
-
Do I need a smartphone to operate the FX Pocket Chronograph models? Yes, both the Pocket D1 and the Pocket V2 models are designed to connect via Bluetooth to a mobile app, which displays and records your shot strings directly on your device.
-
What makes the FX True Ballistic Radar Chronograph different from the Pocket versions? While the pocket versions focus on muzzle velocity, the True Ballistic model tracks the projectile over its entire flight path to calculate actual Ballistic Coefficients (BC) and features a built-in display so a smartphone is not required for operation.
-
Can the FX True Ballistic Chronograph be used for centerfire rifles as well as airguns? Yes, the True Ballistic unit is a high-end radar system designed to accurately measure the flight data of both airgun pellets/slugs and high-velocity centerfire rifle bullets.
-
What are the primary improvements found in the Pocket Chronograph V2 compared to the D1? The V2 model offers updated hardware including improved battery life and enhanced Bluetooth connectivity for more reliable data transmission to your smartphone.
-
How do the Pocket Chronographs mount to a rifle? These compact units are designed to be mounted directly to the accessory rail or placed just below/beside the barrel, ensuring they stay aligned with the shot without interfering with the pellet's flight.
-
What specific data points does the FX True Ballistic Radar provide? This unit provides comprehensive flight data, including projectile velocity at multiple distances, total energy, and the drag curve, which is essential for building accurate long-range dope charts.
