An update on the situation.
As it has been said a battery issue. For some reason the issue doesn't happen on LiPo but does on NiCd and Nimh batteries. I know a lot of people upgrade the tank batteries to LiPo but the IBU products also support NiCd & NiMh so these so should work. I've contacted the manufacturer and the team are going to check the firmware tomorrow and find a fix, so sit tight and wait for a firmware update.
Ian.

Re: IBU3 Airsoft recoil does not work
Yes Guys I have it set on 6cell nimh battery. But if it is better for me to upgrade to Lipo batteries. tell me what I should buy and I will upgrade it. I hope people benefit from this as I'm sure it will be a brilliant board when these little niggles are fixed and if all it needs is upgraded batteries then so be it. Best people knowing this than not.

I know how frustrating it can be but I KNOW Ian can help get this sorted! His customer service and support CAN NOT BE BEAT! If he could train this baboon to work the 3 he can do ANYTHING!

IT WORKS IT WORKS .. Ian sorted it . IBU3 does indeed work as intended with NIMH batteries. .. next week I will get a video together with new sounds and shooting Cheers Ian Good thing about the IBU3 I suppose is it can allways be updated and made better, by simple downloads.

Video is nice and clear... that's why it's possible tae see the Wife (?) chuckling in the background . Personally I'd set the camera/ smartphone up in Landscape mode, not pictorial if I were you. Great sounds by the way. But.. I can't helpTANKYTOPY wrote:Hey Terry

OMG just noticed the wife was laughing at me out the back door.. and yes I was a bit worried about the neighbours as the sounds are very loud .I turned them down just incase they think the wrong way about hearing german propaganda and marches from my house.
