Rotor jamming???

[hannibal hawk]

My rotor jams every now and again... when it jams its with the same paint that the rest of the teams using so i cant blame the paint cus there using rotors to. I spoke to dye about it and they've told me to tighten some screw up witch i did and its still happening........................any help would be awesome thanks.

which version of the red drive blade to you have?

is it just the plain hooked one? or the one with the fin?

to be honest i've had 2 rotors, one fo the originals and now one of the newer ones, and neither ever jammed.

Larger balls sometimes jam in the centre of the red 'shark fin' part.
You can carefully file or sand the centre out a little larger to overcome this.

Thanks for that but don't really want to start filling my rotor down.

take the floor tray out of the hopper.

look at the red hooked spinning bit, under the black holed spinning bit (great technical descriptions!!). if it has a fin on the back it is the newer version which is meant to help prevent jams.

if not, it is the older one.

I take it this is the older one then?
