Reason why the speed doesnt work the way it should

[Hudson']

Well guys turns out the reason the speed doesnt work correctly is because wdp made a big balls up. The solenoid requires 5.8v while the battery is only giving out 4.5v. This is why the speed works brilliantly just after you have charged it but after a short period of time everything starts screwing up.

edit: not sure if this applies to the A4 but i did hear that wdp are working on a new solenoid or have a new solenoid.

New solenoid on the A4.
However I never had a problem with my speed. it never suffered from FSDO which is what I assume you're talking about?
Just give it two full charges from new.

well for me its not fsdo its more like i shoot a large string then the last few shots drop off

And it turns itself off

Never had that problem myself.

It doesnt even turn on now and havnt done nothing to it apart from charge(with the proper charger).

The new solenoid for the speed was to be a rolling production upgrade for if you wanted to get more shots per charge. An email from fraser (wdp) was quoted a while back on angel owners forum and he told everyone the reason for alot of the problems is not just because of the battery, he gave a full list and the comments on the 4.5 battery were not entirely correct. If you were to get the larger capacity battery the problems would still likely be there as he has explained that is not the sole cause of the fsdo and other such problems, have a look on the forum, you will see the correct reasons there.

i've never had a problem with mine and i'm shooting nuff bps (first red led) in long strings. I know that my shims have gone dodgy from time to time but thats coz i don't look after it the way i should.

interesting question along the speed line. I'm breaking balls like there's no 2mora on my speed. Tried , shoting with an eggy, FPS is about 280-290, tried different brands and bores of paints. Still bursts. oh done different sensi settings also.

now my barrel did get dropped on the floor by someone else and put a fat jagged edge in the end where it screws in. filed it down till was and is proper smooth and still the same problem persists?

any ideas?!

 

[liamliddy]

usual things, drop test, calibrate sensi with balls already in the stack, check sensi rod not split or broke, my speed never worked right, i think the sensi was faulty on it te tech said, it put me off angels

My speed was excellent, again turn on and don't dry fire, use paint as first few shots calibrate the sensi.

Also adjust max rate of fire to suit your hopper.

Never had to do anything other than that.
