Hello I picked up a GOTG yesterday and I am having an issue with the orb drop target. When the ball is locked behind the target the target wont drop when it is supposed to. I can see the coil is firing but it doesn't seem to have enough power to pull the target back down. I went though the menu and I don't see an option to increase the power for the little coil that is supposed to pull the target down. The metal piece under the playfield that the coil is supposed to engaged to pull the target done seems a little to far away from the coil so it wont grab it.

Any suggestions ?

Quoted from cartman5579:

Ok it’s really making it unenjoyable that I get timed out of modes because the orb drop target won’t fall. I’ve loosened the spring, I’m scared to remove it as then there is nothing to pull it down. Is it possible this is a glitch in the code?

I put a little washer under each of the two back screws of the bracket. It pushed the metal bracket closer to the magnet so it grabs it better. It has worked everytime since I did this.

Quoted from Sinestro:

Are you talking about the magnet problem, or the orb drop target problem? You quoted his drop target problem, but your answer seems to be about the magnet problem.

The reason the drop target wont drop is because the magnet is a little to far away from the bracket to pull it in so the drop target won't fall. By putting a washer under each screw pushes the bracket closer to the magnet. At least on my game.

Quoted from cartman5579:

Forgive me for being a novice, but if you ever have the playfield up again, could you snap a pic of the screws you’re referring too?
The only screws I’m aware of on that bracket are the 4 on the backside that hold the spring in place. I’m probably confusing you more by even talking at all. A pic would help if you get a chance.

Here are a couple pics. The issue I was having was the coil labeled 51 in the pic would fire and it is supposed to pull that metal piece you see in. When the metal piece gets pulled in the drop target would fall. The metal piece is just a little to far away and coil labeled 51 in the pic would not pull in the metal piece. I put a washer under each of the two back screws which pushed the metal piece a little closer so when the coil fired it would pull in the metal piece and the target would drop.

Quoted from Tungsten78:

For those with a tempermental orb lock, this adjustment worked like a charm for me. Thanks murfe88!

Awesome I am glad it worked.

I had my best game so far. I finished everything except Quill. I started Quill and had one shot left. I also had immolation lit. All I had to do was hit the scope and I drained. Ahhh I was so pissed. Quill was blinking in the pic. That's why it's not lit.

I saw these at my local toys r US this morning. I think they were $13.00. Not sure were it could go on the machine. My wife said it look kind of cheesy. I though it looked ok.
