Resurrecting because this VUK mech is a pain in the ass to dial in. Sent Stern an email with no response.

I guess they know it sucks, just like the hyper loop in Star Wars.

This is why I'm done with new Sterns. They can't make mechs that work. People should be fired over this crap.

Quoted from Kingpin22:

Did you ever get a response back? I can't get mine 100 %, if I have 2 balls in Demon and start love gun The ball keeps falling into the VUK, I have adjusted the strength in the menu and still can't get it to work right. After 3 attempts it stops trying and it takes 3 cycles to ball search before it will kick all balls from demon head.

Well, yes and no. Mostly yes though.

I read something about the VUK "learning" behavior over time. Mine seems to decide, after 30 plays or so, to stop locking balls in the VUK, but does count them toward Demon MB. It "locks, counts, and ejects" each ball immediately after the lock. So balls don't stay locked, they are ejected. But locks properly count. They device doesn't malfunction so to speak, but it also doesn't lock 3 balls.

This could be due to a bad opto 2 in the demon head. I have a new one to put in, but since the game plays 100%, I didn't install it yet.
