- In this video I'll take you on a "real" updated Minelab Manticore metal detecting adventure but I am focusing on the Stabilizer feature and when to turn it on and how to adjust it as I encounter nails etc. I had the camera angle off a bit but nevertheless, I think you will understand what I'm trying to show.

Nice video. Thanks. I love how I'm able to pull deep silvers in an iron infested site! The stabilizer should only be used in high mineralization or iron infestation.
I like it that you uploaded a video and your best target was a broken carabinier....It gives credit to your other videos when I do find something good and you showed what a bunch of bad targets sound like...
Thanks just keeping it real.
You talk about the stabilizer as one whole item. But there are 2,the stabilizer setting goes into operation from setting 1 to 12,the stabilizer filter on off will give an extra effect to the sound. It is up to the user to choose which one to choose that suits him best
Thanks I'm tracking. But explain to me with a stabilizer at 1 and the filter on why is my audio enhanced (louder) but when it goes up to 2 it doesn't carry the same volume?
@@MentalMetal The higher you go with the filter off the more you suppress the shirping, with the filter on you get to hear it softer, it is an extra tool that helps you remove doubt if you have a signal somewhere. You immediately hear that it is iron. The biggest advantage is a lot of time savings, the trick is to set it ideally so that it becomes clear to you with the lowest possible setting
I’m very happy with my manticore and believe the update made it a better machine. Thanks for the video.
Great to hear!
I dealt with Zack from FBMD! Great guy!!
They truly are good people.
Thanks for the pointers, I finally broke down and got a Manticore from FBMD in the mail today!
Good luck!
Look forward to the 'virgin' grounds coming up.
I thought about getting the manticore but my deus 2 is just phenomenal.the weight the id just love it.
The D2 is hard to put down. I hear you.
Looks like that update did the trick!
I agree. Its a lot better now.
I’m not sure how much the update has really affected finding nails for me. I finally got out this weekend and they still ring up at a 78-81 for me. Sound good at least one way. The red numbers are nice but it did the same thing before the update with a red line under the numbers. I’ll admit that most of the time I knew it wasn’t a good target but in my test garden I have good target’s buried with nails and they sounded the same. Hopefully with more time on the machine I’ll get better at it. Drives me nuts thinking I’ve found a silver dime just to pull out a big nail! I never went higher than 6 on stabilizer though.
Thanks for vid.
You bet
Reminds me of are civil war camp but we have still have plenty of good targets this will be are third year beans were planted this spring so we will have a much more room to swing very hard to swing with all those corn stalks can’t wait until October but we been doing really well at the beach s I just found 2 Native American silver s and a drummer s cuff button civil war the Legend is killing it using gold mode also 3 rings all gold
Thats awesome! Best of luck to you.
Man IDK I see all these videos with this Manticore and I dont see anything that makes me want to upgrade over the 800.
If you are happy with the 800, then stick with it. There's nothing wrong with that.
You now have enough nails to build that shed.....next time we go out we will compare targets....you with that nail magnet and me with the D2.....2 more carabiners and you could go rock climbing
If you would have come to this spot when you bailed you would have found a bullet or 2 and some nails 😉
@@MentalMetal that was Pre D2 days.....back then you were an Equinox hater.....
I still hate the ergonomics of it, never enjoyed swinging it but can't deny what it found me over the years.
Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching!
I got my Manticore in August and have been detecting an old abandoned early 1800 church yard. I run in AT general or AT high conductors with all but the basic settings on factory settings. Sens as high as I can without chatter usually 21-27, recovery is at 5. Since I have got this thing in August I have not found even trash at more than 6 inches deep. I just spent 1 1/2 - 2 hours there yesterday and only had one signal worth digging. It was solid 13 , round dot on the center line, I was excited until I pulled up foil :((. Most of the things I have detected I can get with my pin pointer before I dig. Do you have any suggestions how to make this Manticore do more than find shallow coins and trash ?
A couple things I would suggest, 1. There may not be anything there. 2. Don't depend on the 2D map, its a tool so listen to the tones more (just like any other machine, you can tell a lot by the tones. 3. If you didn't get the software upgrade, you should and turn on Ferrous Indications (red numbers). 4. Try running your ground stabilization at 4. Hope that helps.
@@MentalMetalI have also had same results in the park, just shallow stuff. I went online to update when I got it but it said it was already up to date so I did not do any more to it. I will do as you suggest with the ground stabilization, I have not touched that yet. I was trying to avoid changing the factory setting since I assume it was probably set to the best all around performance but so far my Legend walks all over this thing. Thank You for the help .
I saw a video where the guy said he thought with the new version he lost depth, have you noticed anything like that happening with yours?I haven't updated mine for that reason. Thanks for the live digs!
Its a little less sparky but not that much. I think its a better machine with the new update.
Appreciate the tips but man that looked like digging in a gravel pit!
It is a little rocky LOL
I wonder if the stabilizer has any effect on the depth?
Thanks for the real world testing,i still need to update mine. I bought mine from Andy we dig metal detectors, I have not been able to contact him to put in a order for headphones I have tried calling texting anyone know what’s going on there? Thanks Chuck
Fort Bedford will hook you up give John a call.
What kind of hand digger are you using?
Is there emi close by, or is that normal for high sensitivity settings?
Since the new update I can my sensitivity higher than the original version.
I find so much fake jewelry.
