Hey,
i have a problem with my angel.
When i put air on my Angel, it will not fire.
Then after a few shots, it start firing. It seems, that the trigger-detection or maybe the solenoid is not working well.
Now i was just playing with a angel(from my teammate), and i regonized, that his solenoid is much louder then mine. (it was without air)
Its not possible to miss the "clicking" of his solenoid. But on my angel, i have to listen really hard for the click.
Maybe somebody have the same problem and give me a solution.
thanks ahead and big greetz
What mode is your marker in?
Are you trying to fire (w/marker aired up) without paint, ie. dry fire?
And what does the meter say your battery voltage is?

Do you mean perhaps the opto clicking instead of the solenoid? If so try just screwing in the activation point screw a bit--this pushes the flag further into the beam.

Possibly a trigger adjustment problem?? Have you adjusted your trigger?
back out your front stop and backstop screws. then try, then adjust it carefully.
Remember that the manual (at least the older versions) have a few of the screws mixed up for the trigger adjustment, so make sure you're adjusting the correct screws.
Also, do you have stock grips, or aftermarket grips?

hey guys...
yesterday i tried in the night to change the solenoid with my teammate. His solenoid in my gun works great! So i think the solenoid is broken.
Really bad for me, because i have only shot maybe 1000balls with my angel. And now i have to buy a new solenoid.
First the On/Off was leeking terrible and such *****
thanks a lot for your opinions... but i have to contact a angel tec.

Mine did the same thing... one top of other things, so I'm waiting to hear the diagnosis from Performance Angel.
Mine would only loudly click with either 5 battery bars... with 4 battery bars or below, the audible click only starts after about 2-3 trigger pulls or not at all.

Same Problem. A few triggerpulls later it will start firing but not really good.
It seems like the Solenoid is limited and needs to blow free....
(On my oldgun, there was a small button on the Solenoid, to Kick some Air through it for cleaning)
Yesterday:
I changed the solenoid with my teammate again, and its work great.
No problems ...nothing. My biggest Problem is not the noisy "Click".
Its that, that my Velocity goes up and down. From 200 to 300... But with the other solenoid... the gun is back.. for kicking some asses.
In my opinion, it musst be something with the solenoid electricity.
But its hard to explain for me, because i don't understand it by myself.(and englisch is not my home-language ;))
Defently its not a:
Battery Problem
Trigger Problem
Lpr/Hpr Setting Problem... etc
I change nothing in my Settings, and with the new Solenoid there is no problem.
Now i have to wait... like you guys... for the angeltech-support.
we will see....

Hmmm..yesterday my gun worked just fine. turned the dwell up to 9....from
6,5. Could it just have been the dwell? Will the first shots drop if the dwell is to low?
