AimTrak for Beretta gun

Mittwoch, Oktober 21st, 2009

I like Beretta Guns, but until now there was no way to use them with Arcade Cabs.

A month ago ultimarc give us a new product called AimTrak. It is like the Wii Remote with a Camera inside and a Sensorbar at the top of screen.

We have some good old BerettaGuns left for XBOX1 and I ripped of original stuff to make them working with AimTrak and my Arcade Cab.

The procedure tooks 3-4h of work *puh*

Here you can find the gun
