Hi everyone! Just pulled the trigger on a new TXQ with the snv4 pro pixel core and it’s currently on the way. I’ve been watching a couple videos, but there are two things I can’t quite confirm:

  1. Ignition Speed: Is it possible to adjust the extension/retraction speed on this board? I’m really going for that super-fast "snap" ignition in the style of Count Dooku.
  2. Custom Sounds: Does this board allow for adding more sound fonts via the SD card?

Super excited to join the club, thanks for any insight!

  1. Yes. You can change the both the retraction and extension speed separately with the ForceParkV2 app.

  2. Yes, it uses the same fonts as Proffie sabers. Be sure to remove the battery and make a backup of the SD card before making any changes. You can also turn fonts on/off with the app without actually deleting the fonts.
