In theory, I understand how to destroy the death star. I am requesting any advice, tips, tricks, etc. on how to get the ball up the ramp or even around the loop in that direction. Its a hard shot for me. It seems so random if and when it happens. I cannot figure out how to make it repeatable. Do you make it off the left flipper or right flipper? Is it some combo?

Thanks everyone for the encouraging advice. I am new to the pinball scene. One things for sure, it is a lot of fun.

Interesting about the built in bubble being centered on the line nearest the plunger. Mine is more sitting on top of that line. That's where it went when I set it to 6.8 using my phone placed directly in front of the flippers. I questioned the reading on my phone because I thought it was supposed to between the lines. Perhaps I will lower it a bit.

Flipper strength, is that some setting? It seems that no matter how fast I attempt press the left flipper for a backhand the ball just shoots off into the playfield.
