You got that right.
I'm wondering, has anyone encountered the problem/solution to the vengeance not coming back up when reset after a nosedive/crash? I know there has been some speculation as to why this might happen, and I have read some various thoughts of potential solutions, such as springs needing to be made tighter with the added weight, or PTFE oil on the guide rails, etc. I have not found anything definitive however on this. Would love to fix mine...

some had the same problem without the mod installed. Something to do with the sleeve, bracket getting stuck preventing the mechanism to go back up because it went to low, if i remember correctly. the weight is not enough to stop the coil or bracket from going back to it's place. remember this is mechanical. not on a spring like the pro. i can't give you a definitive answer since i own a pro.

My memory has faded a bit but I am pretty sure I saw this issue remedied on a YouTube video. Sorry I do not know what video by name but I think it was a "review" and not merely a "gameplay" vid.
Hope you figure out you problem.

Hey thanks guys for the thoughts. I didn't realize this had been noticed on any un-modded machines which is why I posted here to check, but since I asked here I thought I'd post what happened. After taking the black top off the assembly box that is immediately underneath the Vengeance and not being able to find any particular trouble, I ended up calling Stern. Their end suggestion since nothing was seemingly rough, binding, or in the way of normal operation, was a touch of white lithium grease on the rails that guide the Vengeance crash motion. Since I had it on hand, I opted for the tiniest touch of super lube ptfe oil in the middle of each rail that the metal guide/sliders slide on, then used the game ship diagnostic crash test a few times to spread that minuscule drop along any contact points. Seems to be back to normal. Never used this before so guess i'll see what happens in the long run.
Alright,
new batch will be ready by the end of the week.
i will have a few red, perfect for premium.
blue also available, perfect for pro/LE.
of course both color look great on all of them.
thanks everybody, bob.
Only 4 red left and i do have blue available, no waiting ready for shipping.
** Received another e-mail from someone who got one from e-bay, he's not very happy **
Again, this is not me, used to be one of my customer who decided to make a cheap copy and selling those on e-bay.
thanks guys, support the original creator!

I bought a red and a blue back on the initial run. I installed the red in my pro and am selling it installed. Next I’m picking up an LE and plan to install the blue but figured I’d ask since it’s been around 4 or 5 years so is there any changes in a new revision I’d rather have instead? Without back reading the entire thread ....

this is what i have left.
2 red (goes well with the premium with all the red trims, makes the ship look like it's charging phasers).
5 blue (perfect for pro/LE, brighter and bigger impact, still look good in a premium)
thanks everybody, bob.

after answering everybody, i have only 2 blue left and ready for shipping.
just shoot me a pm.
thanks everybody, bob.
Quoted from beatmaster:the last two are sold.
i will have another batch in a few weeks.
thanks everybody, bob.
That a way Bob.
Hi I would like to order one in red for ST premium
Quoted from beatmaster:*** be aware, don't be fooled by a cheap version/seller from e-bay, he used to be one of my customer ***
INTERACTIVE VERSION *** new batch coming up just in time with the vault edition ***
basically, it will flash/pulse in some sequences and in vengeance modes or when the vengeance/target is hit, like the flasher under the ship that we can't really see but with the kit you can't miss it and really makes a nice effect.
plug and play with all the connectors and instructions, also with additional screws/longer for the back section of the saucer is needed (takes about 15/20 minutes and you're done).
Price for the interactive kit is $75 usd plus $15 usd shipping anywhere in canada and usa.
international pm me for shipping price.
***** the last 3 pictures are reference for the plugs ********
sorry for the crappy videos.
bob.
here's the videos of the interactive kit;
video #1 = interactive blue
video #2 = intetractive red[quoted image]

Just installed one of these.
Bob was great to deal with and the mod was super easy to install. Looks great and seems like it should have been there from the factory.
