Elderly HALO

[Steve Hancock]

My housemate has got an elderly halo, an A i think.

I was wondering do they have an eye in them, cos his just keeps straining against the paint even when not firing (I don't just mean the spring, i know that stays wound, but the moter keeps pulsing as well). Is it meant to do this or has the eye gone?

Cheers again

yeah it has an eye in the feed tube. If it is still pushing maybe the eye has paint on it, it just needs cleaned.
Hope it helps.

if it had paint on it, the motor wouldnt pulse as it would see paint and not try to feed. unless of course it is black shelled paint which is covering the eye.....which leads onto my next point.
could it be that he is using black shelled paint as halos cannot see this, hence my batteries dying on sunday and me hand feeding my cocker at the big game while storming the farmhouse as the warriors

Not just black shelled paint, anything.

So i guess there is something wrong, i'll have to take it apart and have a look.

Cheers guys.

Eclipse stock what they call a HALO B ir-sensor, would this be the same one that i need for he HALO A?

I would have thought so, its only the drive mechanism that is different.


Your not sticking this on an ir3 are you???

 

[Steve Hancock]

No, i'm not putting it on the ir3, i used to use a HALO B Z-code but they didn't get on, so i switched to an egg.

Its for one of my teammates who is running an impy with a revi x-board, and is out shooting it.
