Bouncy bouncy...

Who said Angels don't bounce?

the majority of markers will do that, especially ones with a microswitch in it.

 

[Raffles]

agreed - but it's almost un-heard of in angels - besides which - it's an opto trigger - not a micro-switch (just to be pedantic)

 

[Mikey D]

un-heard of???

you obviously havent played with any of the newer generation fly's and speeds.

i know mine bounces

 

[Raffles]

ok - i'll rephrase

That is usually un-heard of on STOCK 03/04 speeds!

the new speeds bounce like crazy out of the box. SUPER-DUPER FAST! I was suprised because I too heard Angels didn't have much bounce. But the first time I loaded up my stock 05 it went off like a mad machine gun

nah the speed 05's ramp out of the box
I managed to do it on my iR3 - take out the furthest back grub screw ,make sure the trigger breaks the beam as you push it back, push it back as far as it'll go and then it'll break the beam as it comes back forward

i've had no bounce with angels except the speed 05, my mates LCD had a faulty micro switch in it and it used to fire 3 each pull he got it sorted though

Thats the americans "Rubber band" mod which is when the put a rubber band around the board to make the opto switch softer...it also makes it super bouncy

Try putting that thing through the new bump test rules!

the speed 05's most definitely dont ramp out of the box. having played every round of the PA this year with my speed, ramping in the last 2 rounds, I can tell you it definitely doesnt. may be a bit bouncy if you put TR up to 6 but not ramping at all

oh fair enough, i remember reading that the speed 05's ramp out the box - maybe even from these boards? I cant remember where exactly
