OK. Ill try it outside later today. I only have the 3 tanks, so 3 Apples, they all send and receive hits from all over. I can put one tank in my bedroom and another tank 2 rooms away on the same side of the house and it will register. I just thought of something, Im not sure if it might be the issue. When I took the Taigen IR LED out the hole it was in was painted, when I drilled out the hole to 6mm I did not repaint the inside. Could the IR signal be reflecting off the bare metal?? With the Clark IR LED and stock Taigen LED diameter hole, the tanks were very accurate. I was told the hole needed to be 6mm and IR 9mm back, so thats why I drilled it out to 6mm.
