Ok so Im still new to forums as a rarely post so hopefully I selected the correct sub-forum.
My issues with Slugfest are as followed
When pitching a"fastball" I notice 1 issue for sure and maybe a second. The first is after the pitch leaves the flap it seems another ball gets stuck and holds the flap up (see picture), it sort of happens with the other pitches but the second ball hits the flap and but goes back down with the other pitches, Im safely assuming if I fix the fastball issue the others will be fixed too. The second possible issue is I dont think the pitches are being pitched correctly. Fastball pitches wide outside, change up seems to pitch fine (slow and down the middle), curve doesnt have any movement, screwball goes pretty much down the middle (could have sworn it cuts outside then back in)
The other issue is the far left target doesnt register on soft hits but does on harder hits, while all the other targets register on all hits
Wanted to get the communities opinion on what may be wrong before I go buying a bunch of parts I dont need.
Im assuming a magnet issue, opto or pitch mechanism issue.
If possible can links be given to where i can purchase the parts that you all suggest.
Thanks so much in advanced

An update to my earlier post #717

So I figured out some things.
1) the pitching mechanism is missing a screw and became loose probably in transit, bought new screw tightened, pitch no longer veers to the right and becomes unhittable
2) the green flap, was assembled wrong and is missing pieces the green flap is supposed to go over the little strip of metal and is held in place by pins. **(where can I buy these pins?) Awaiting arrival on the assembly.
3) I don't think the magnet is fully functional does have some magnetic capacity but overall dead, awaiting arrival on new magnet.

Does anyone know where I can buy the piece circled in blue, also does anyone know what the piece circled in red is for? (Not my images)
