Hey all, ran into a problem with my Iron Monger. It doesn’t seem to want to go all the way up, only to that halfway up spot. Then when it goes down it gets all the way to where it is supposed to be, but then seemingly continues a bit farther and the whole mechanism makes a big popping sound before it stops. It seems like it’s getting hung up on something, but I don’t know what it would be. The CAM is working as it should (as far as I can tell) and I WD40’d the rods so it’s moving freely when I move it manually up and down. Any ideas? I’m relatively new to the IM club, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks, DaveH ...appreciate any help. Here are some pics I snapped.

Cool. I did have a problem recently with the cam arm slipping off, and unfortunately this problem seems different. But maybe the pop is the cam arm going back over the plastic? I’ll take a look at the positioning of the whole motor. It does seem a bit off compared to yours. I did notice that one of my 4 monger switches appears to be broken. I thought it was a switch that registered hits, but maybe it’s a switch that stops/starts it? Thanks for the help!

Anyone ever have a problem with the ball getting stuck at the end of the right ramp? It’s getting hung up on the edge of the slingshot plastic. It’s like the ramp or the slingshot plastic need to move 2mm the opposite direction and I’m not sure how to pull that off without breaking something.

Anyone know how to become Drone Champion with the new code? I’m assuming it’s destroying a certain number of drones until you surpass 5 million points (the default), but I haven’t found anything about it on the web. I was also unaware you could “beat” the drones until 1 minute ago, so perhaps I’m doing life wrong. Does it have something to do with that? Do you have to get to War Machine three times to beat drones and get it flashing?
