Quoted from Grg:

Nice work, looks completely modded and ready for play

Yes loaded with everything I wanted.

New to the club and having trouble with outlane drains from the right ramp drop where it just goes up and out. Without reading all the posts hope someone can recommend something. I tried shifting the ramp angle with no success. I don't have the machine in its final spot nor leveled so may be the issue.

Quoted from labnip:

step 1: level

Ya I will when I move it into slot. Other thought is to deaden the ramp end, maybe needs a new grommet.

#6875 6 years ago
Quoted from labnip:

clean & wax
adjust ramp support post screws
replace balls

I should clarify, I hit the left ramp clean and the ball drop on the right side keeps hopping the rail and out the drain. So far I have leveled, tried adjusting the ramp screws with angle, changed the post rubber, spun the ramp grommet. 35-40% of time results in a lost ball. Crazy

Quoted from Grg:

this is my guess. hits the left ramp, ball comes back to right inlane, drops and bounces or spins over to the outlane?

Exactly it.

#6882 6 years ago

I adjusted the ramp a little and put down a pair of Mylar strips on each side of the switch. It's more tolerable, like 15% up and out the outlane or hopping the rail now.

Quoted from northvibe:

So last fall I shopped my tron for my wedding and then put titan comp silicone clear bands on with colored flipper bands. Not sure if I'm crazy but the flipper bands feel freaking weird like, they allow big bounces? I still can't place my finger on it.
The post and other bands I don't have an issue with but I may swap my flipper rubber out for black or something.
Do you guys have any opinions?

I find them too sticky which leads to easier catches and more forceful shooting. I dislike them and use nothing but real rubber on flippers but love the Titan line everywhere else.

#6928 6 years ago
Quoted from northvibe:

Ok good. I'm not nuts. Are you using the normal black that comes with sterns?

I use red most of the time on everything. Though I think I have a normal rubber orange on one side and blue on the other with Tron currently.

I’m going to install service rails later today, is the playfield predrilled for the back side? If not anyone have a pic of the proper install points?

* edit found a good pic *
