Hello Everyone! I purchased a Mando pro this week (used, but with less than 20 plays) as my first pinball machine. I'm both excited and a little intimidated about owning my very own pinball machine.
I've read every. single. page. in this forum. So much great information, but it is a lot when binging the forum in less than a week. Because of all of the great information in this forum, I've...
1) lowered the trough power
2) slightly lowered flipper strength
3) put in my cliffy order (3-4 week wait time, but I can't let it sit without playing while I wait)
4) started shopping for replacement rubbers
5) started examining metal rails to make sure they aren't rubbing the playfield
did I miss anything that should be done immediately?
I'm also having the problem where the ball will hit the plastic that holds the red flasher after coming off the ramp drop over the left orbit (after the Razor Crest shot). I remember seeing a post where someone suggested putting foam in the lane just before the drop to slow down the ball. Has this worked for people? Are there other potential solutions out there?
Thanks for all of the great content and information that has been shared so far in this forum!
