Legend never came with a lower plastic shaft the mid shaft was plastic, I can tell you in Gold mode the legend will see very small nuggets at pretty good depth it will also pick up my hand at a decent distance when waved under the coil flat
well since the guy in the video was using a nox 800 it is relevant to those detectors
Okay, maybe I have the original carbon fiber one and also the plastic one. Also, my original mid shaft was aluminum, I just went out and checked. I know it will pick up small gold but that is not the question. The question is does the carbon fiber one reduce sensitivity to small gold. Wouldn't comparing the plastic one to the carbon fiber one under the same conditions help answer the question?
I believe you to be correct the Legend Mid shaft was aluminum come to think about it when the Legend first came out, but the Lower shaft has always been Carbon Fiber, not sure if it messes with depth or not but that Lower Carbon Fiber shaft can cause a lot of falsing on targets I believe is the point of the video especially on the higher sensitive gold mode, my Golden Mask 7 and 4WD do the same thing as in the video and on my hand especially if I am running in the Gold Mode in the GM7 at 44 KHz, but it sure does not seem to affect the depth on those two detectors, on those two detectors it seems the higher the frequency that you run them in the worse it is, the 4WD does it in 18 KHz but not in 8 KHz and the GM7 will do it in 24 and 44 KHz but not in the 4 KHz and not as bad in the 14 KHz
