Seven modes of operation , 2 reprogramable , 25 balls per second,1 button setup with led.
Weaknesses:
You need a qev for the cyclone if you want to get over 17bps.
Review:
I bought the 50 dollar board which you have to take off the stock solenoid and solder it on the Rampage board. Overall everything went fine and I couldn't wait to get my A-5 on the field. As soon as I got on it, the rampage worked great. I haven't had any problems and support is great. I didn't want to spend a lot of money so I got the 50 dollar board. There is the 80 dollar board and comes with everything. All you do is swap out everything inside the e-grip. The only major problem was getting the trigger to actually fire. I had to bend the metal trigger switch to get it to fire. I looked at the stock e-grip board and it was bent also. I tried it and it worked. I would give it a 10 but the trigger switch was hassle to fix, but I finally got it after about 4 tries.
Conclusion:
If you want to spend alot of money on paint get this. It is amaising. I got it for the firing modes. 1 button setup is way better then having to pull out a philips screwdriver.

Regulating CO2 is a very effective way to get better shot to shot consistency, for those that haven't upgraded to HPA it is the way to go.
QEVs for the A5 attach to the cyclone piston. They allow the excess gas to escape quickly (hence the name) so that the cylone can cycle quick enough to keep up with the newer E-Grip boards.
Most people have gotten 18 bps without problems in the cylcone, anything over that turnus it into a blender or causes 'skipping' in the cyclone.
Some QEVs are difficult to install, but some are available to install w/o tools.

oh the rampage is one sweet sweet board and iv'e seen a video of it doing 25 bps ..(mine is in the mail now) yes they are very fast and awsome...oh and u should have gave it a 10 if you would have looked on their site in the forums for questions and help they made an anouncement that they need minor bending and from what i hear they also say it when you get it :P

I have the Palmer's Pursuit Shop QEV and you install this one w/o tools. I love it and I have the Vortex mod to go along with it. But I have the w.a.s. board which came stock in my e-grip. I am hoping to upgrade to a rampage when I get some more money and my team and I start playing more.

I recommend saving your money, and buy the new QEPH. The x7 uses venting ports directly on the Piston Housing to exhaust the gas directly from the cylinder (the fastest route possible), and TechT Paintball is selling a PH mod for the A5. I bought a PPS QEV, and I am not impressed. TechT currently sold out all of their "BETA" QEPHs, so more should be available around May 20th.
