Yes you can spin them both ways with the rip. I think you can buy them seperately from Planet but not sure how to install one.

thanks pinky... step by step details instructions with photographs would be cool... or the services of a pink-thonged baller with screwdriver would be better... (now DON'T twist that peeps!)

do not

i repeat do not let pinki anywhere near your marker or other kit with the intention of fixing it.

he is totally jinxed, he only has tpo touch kit for it to stop working.

and ham fisted?? well stripped threads on a timmy prove that



oh btw sent my halo off to be fixed yet ??

I'm not 100% sure, but I think my problem is fixed.......cured by using fresh batteries

Was using a AGD-E warp/halo 10.8v rechargeable battery pack which I hadn't fully charged + was getting jams together with the low batt light flashing.

Fully charged the pack last night and not had any jams since - the drive cone now seems to have enough oomph to push balls over the spring - have run bucketloads of balls through it with no problems. <Fingers crossed>.

Well that didn't cure mine

I have used Energiser titanium, lithium and regular Duracells and all have the same issue.

still not heard back from Odessy though

 

[Gyroscope]

I've been told that the lithium (photo) batteries are of a lower voltage, or something, and that long term use can foul the board. This, of course, may be false, I don't know.

Anyone heard anything about that?

I have a z- coded ripper dive and the ripper really helped u might try that.
