Adjusting Velocity On Unibody Phantom Without Rod

I might get a unibody Phantom and was wondering if there's a way to adjust the velocity without the velocity rod. Thank you in advance!

You can take out the valve body, bolt, and hammer and adjust the bolt with an allen wrench/flat head screwdriver.

I guess I could do that, but it would be really annoying...

Those are your options, take apart, or velocity rod.

if you have a harbor frieght or something like it near by think about picking up a really long screw driver and wrap a few wraps of duct or electrical tape around it to protect the barrel. may be cheaper or may cost the same as ordering a velocity rod.


or meditate alot and try moving it with your mind....

That was the same train of thought I had, Clearush.

I've just never had any luck with that mind trick.

oh oh cut the barrel off and thread for autococker threads but then you'd be trashing a unibody.
