i just have a few questions tech type questions about the fly.

1. when i take the trigger frame off, will the vernier wheels just fall out, or are they secured there by a screw? i know there is a locking screw to keep them from moving, but does that keep them from falling out when the triggerframe is off?

2. Say i had a tourney, my angel was chrono'd at 295, and the tourney only allowed under 285. How do i adjust the velocity? Can i do it straight through the mini reg, or do i have to take out the lpr, and remove a few shims?

3. My somewhat teammate, has a force 4 fly, well he handed me his gun and asked me to feel the trigger. he said that it feels much different from when i felt it last. i asked him what he did, and he said...something about bending the leaf spring. i know what the leaf spring is, but how do you bend it, and what are the benefits?

4. Again, originating from my teammate, he uses a dye throttle tank on it, and i believe that the output for that tank is around 800(or atleast its a hp tank). Can you use an hp tank on an angel without any modifications to the mini reg? I have a Crossfire hp output tank(800psi). If a modification is necessary, how hard is it to do, and where is there a write up on it?

5. What is the purpose of a "PIN" number? Does it work like a password so noone other than people that know it can shoot it(as you can see i had a little problem stating that sentence)?

6. How do i find out what my hopper "t time" is, or is this only necessary for intellifeed setups? If it is needed without an intellifeed setup, what is the suggested time for a Reloader B?

7. Are there special modes on the Force 4 fly, that arent on the regular fly?

8. Will i have to strech the detent springs so i can use my Reloader B/Halo?

Thank in advance to anyone who can answer any of my questions.

1. The wheels should stay in the body as long as the screws are tightened down.

2. All you will need to do is adjust the velocity via the mini reg. There is no need to do anything with your LPR

3. By bending the opto leaf the pull isn't as stiff. You can look at this thread for more info: http://angel-owners.com/showthread.php?t=15261

4. The mini reg mod is easy to do and here's Kens write up on it http://angel-owners.com/showthread.php?t=22325

5. The PIN will lock the gun. If you don't know the pin, you can't turn it LIVE. It was used as an anti theft device. It's pretty much useless now.

6. Don't worry about it, you will need the intellifeed.

7. Yes, the Force 4 has 6 special modes that aren't available on any other markers.

8. Your detents should be fine right out of the box. You should leave them alone and only adjust them if you need to.

Here is your online manuals if you would like to read it or refer back to it before you get your Angel. http://angel-owners.com/manuals.php

1. Also (Besides what thog said), they have a small roudn peice of plastic that extends into the Body. So because of that friction, they will stay on even when the screws are out.

Just my 2 cents.

so what do i do when i get it? i have a hp crossfire tank, should i screw the input screw(in reg) all the way in, and then air up, and check the velocity, or should i do the minireg mod first?
