Ive owned my A1 for the summer now, its been ups and downs since with it, sometimes it works great, then sometimes it just sux, chops alot, etc. I tried using the joy/rage settings with lpr of 57 and hpr of 275, then i tried to bring my lpr to 61, then i seen some1 say something about bringning my lpr as low as possible, got it to 52, worked last night, and now its chopping like crazy.

im using a gen 2 A1, vlocity jr, dye stuby tank, cp reg adapter, cp reg

help

i would look at the exhaust stem as well what version of software are you running? also try swapping the velocity with someone elses loader to see if its malfunctioning.

maybe theres an issue with the eyes? might be worth to dbl check that and the paint settings?

I'm putting my money on the Vlocity Jr. as the culprit. Try a fresh battery and/or borrow a loader from someone to test.

got the marker working, ill update if it screws up again, im still not happy with the amount of shots i can get per fill do. only getting 3 pods+hopper+shootdown soon after off a dye 70ci 4500psi filled to 3000psi hot fill

First off, Efficiecny always goes down when you get a hotfill. Especially when when its only a 3000 fill.

I saw you said about paint and bore match. Make sure its always a good fit or efficiency will be down.

Also seems like it could be time for reg servicing. Check the pistons and lube them.

i also forgot to say, when i tried shooting with the low lpr (50 ish) the marker seemed to caugh, like if it was gasping for air right before it would chop, can it be the reg that doesent recharges fast enough? or is it just the marker that cant handle working on a low lpr? Because i tried shooting it the other day with the same settings and it worked fine, and then i tried it yesterday, and thats when it was caughin and chopping.

Raise your LPR to 55-58.

got the marker working at that lpr pressure, now im trying to get it to work with a lower lpr to try and get better efficiancy

Lowering the LPR isnt going to increase efficiency by much at all if any, keep it running at the 55-61 range else you're going to get shootdown and unreliability. Off a 70/45 with a 2400 hot fill from a scuba i get 4 pods and a hopper barely so yours sounds about equal to mine and as for right now thats what you're going to get out of it for efficiency.

im barelly getting that off a 70ci 4500ci filled to 2800-2900 cold fill, im thinking its because i have a hp reg on my tank (i have the cp adapter and a cp reg) so i just ordered a cp lp reg for my tank, ill se if that helps
