Hey wsup guys, i just bought a Vader FX saber today for a good price. i bought this with the intention of striping out the sound board to put into my luxeon saber and sell the rest for parts.
Anyways i turned it on and its a HUGE improvement in sound compared to the hasbro sound but i still got some issues with it. I'm not digging the motion sounds and the tilt sensors. The sound seems to lag a bit and when u whirl it the sounds don't really sync up or play at all.
i read that ultrasound boards have accelerometer or velocity sensors that really sound like in the movies when you whirl it. i was hoping it sounds like this

I know that was a CF board but someone told me ultraboards act the same way. I would love a CF board but they just cost way to much for me.
Anyways I was wondering should I ebay the entire MR saber and put that money toward a ultrasound board or follow my original plan and take out the board and sell the parts for some cash?
In your opinion is the ultrasound board worth the $80 and months of wait until its in stock again or is the difference minimal compared to the MR board?
