I’m having way too many fly balls leaving the right rail ramp on my Attack from Mars Remake (Special Edition). I’m not really satisfied with Chicago Gaming’s answer (Raise the back legs. Use washers on the ramp). I did lower the strength of the flippers.... but it’s still happening. Anyone knows of some kind of a rail guard that would prevent this from happening? Bending of the ramp technique?

Bend the upper part of the wirefirm up slightly where it’s flying off. I had issues like this with IJ and that fixed it.

Thanks. Any special technique/tools you recommend? Did you remove the ramp or did it with the ramp still attached?

I did it with ramp on. Try to pry up the wall with vice grips ( use a towel or something so you don’t scratch the wrieform. It only needs to move up a little, maybe 1/8”.
