Another confirmation of PBL Shaker motor not working on the Iron Maiden. Slam tilt game one.

For those getting stuck balls on the drop targets, check to see if the target is flat with the playfield, mine were not, you can adjust the height with the 2 screws on the mech.

Also the top up post was not level with the playfield and I had to adjust that.

Made an adjustment on the shooter lane as well, auto plunge is working good now. Manual plunge seems to suck due to not enough spring tension.

Quoted from mummite:

Underside picts on the LE. Game is so much fun, really enjoying it so far. Tonight I am adding pin stadium lighting, will try out the flash on the lighting bolt flasher and see how that looks.

I see you changed you post to colored post. I did the same thing, until I realized stern is using a tapered post to prevent air balls from the post. I played a few games with colored post and noticed a lot of airball and ball jump from them. I put back on the factory black tapered ones and it did reduced the air balls.

Quoted from mummite:

I use the slim titan colored posts. Size and shape wise they seem very close to the black default ones. I have played about 10+ games like this and have not noticed major air balls. BTW Titan red looks great on this game

Those were the same I was using. If you look at the old ones if you kept them, you will notice they are Tapered with the thick side going to the top, this forces the ball to stay on the play field. I have always changes out my post rubbers and have never noticed tapered post until Iron Maiden, maybe these are new for stern to help prevent air ball.

Joined the premium club this weekend. Upgraded from a pro. Not sure I am liking the red g.i. Anyone else upgrade from a pro and feel the same?

Quoted from snaroff:

I just replaced the Stern post sleeves with Titan Stern slim. No increase in airballs. Was struck by how hard the Stern posts were...more like hard plastic, not rubber (which I imagine would increase the likelihood of airballs).

That's odd, when I did it I had noticed every shot on the post was an air ball.

Quoted from DrMark12PA:

Anyone have a Pinball Life shaker installed on a premium? I installed mine set to Maximim usage and it seems quite weak compared to my Kiss or ACDC shakers.

What shaker do you have in the other machines?
