I got mine about a month and a half ago and I've been using it every week since. It's made my job on the field much easier, since I don't worry about jams anymore. It's completely worth the cash, because it will save you money on batteries and broken paint in the long run.

The only problem I've had with one was when I was using a friend's DM9 and didn't attach my joy rotor properly and it fell off :eek:.. didn't put it down far enough into the feedneck (it was my first time using a DM :rolleyes:). I got it back on and made a run through but then it kept jamming and I got pinched. Although the rotor tends to never have any problems, just make sure you attach it ok!! :)

I've had more jams in my rotor than any other hopper i've owned. also broke more paint in there aswell.

That being said the battery life, feed consistancy and general awesome ness far outways that of the 3 james and 2 smashed hopper paints i've had in 6 months.

well 3 jams is hardly loads. My old hopper used to jam all the time (which is a complete nightmare when playing back centre), so I had to use the rip drive a lot. I've only ever seen paint break in the rotor once after a particularly big superman dive (diving over a paint stream). How'd you smash your hopper paint :confused:?

But I definitely agree with you, the battery life, feed consistancy and awesomeness of the rotor outweighs the odd jam or break.

Can we post up vids here?

Becuase I have a great vid of a snake dive gone wrong (well he got in without being hit but broke his rotor in the process) The top snaped off and I am sure had this happen to a halo/reloader you would have to make a run for the flag or feed a ball in at a time.

But he manages to play on shooting a few poeple out and simply clips the top back on at the end.

Also another high flyer not breaking any paint in the hopper when no one should dive that high without wanting to break one type of ball or the other.

Rotors are brilliant and well worth the money.

Urban Camo... NICE!
