quality paintballs and an electric hopper. then when i take it off it
works fine wtf?????
      3. then during a game my gun stops working. i cocked the gun
and pull the trigger and NOTHING. the back and front bolt move and

To stop the "Dry-ice" (It's liquid Co2 aqtually) get a Palmers Stabilizer. I'm afraid thats as much i can help you with
Tippman A-5:

14" Dye Excel Barrel
Double Trigger
Remote Coil
Tippmann A-5 Solid Stock
Polished Internals
Pen Spring Mod
Trigger Stop Mod

Plans:
New Paintball Gun

      2. my gun with the r/t chops so many balls even with high
quality paintballs and an electric hopper. then when i take it off it
works fine wtf????? What kind of hopper is it? The RT has enough potential to outshoot pretty much any hopper. Your obviously shooting too fast. Turn down the RT or get a better hopper.
      3. then during a game my gun stops working. i cocked the gun
and pull the trigger and NOTHING. the back and front bolt move and
nothing. then i leave my gun alone for an hour or two and it works
again wtf???? Your tank may have come unscrewed slightly. Screw it ALL the way in next time, and keep plenty of oil on the rear bolt and sear.
      4. i still get dryice comin out of my gun even though i have an x- chamber when i have my 98c with the r/t. then i take off the r/t and
no dryice???? When you shoot fast you suck up liquid co2 very easily. An x-chamber slows it down, but doesnt put an end to it. Without the RT your not shooting fast enough for this.

stuff happens with r/t's.

A Palmers Stabalizer will help liquid cycling a lot. Youll need a Male one and youll just swap it with the expansion chamber.

Which Ricochet model is it? Theres slower ones (AK, 2K, Rhino) that wont keep up.

i have the apache ricochet hopper. but is the female stabilizer just as
good as the male one???? i was gonna get a gas thur front grip from
palmers web site. then i was gonna sell the x-chamber on ebay. but
if the male one is better i get it.

The Male and Female work exactly the same. Male and Female simply describe the way they hook up. The male screws right into the VA, and you screw your tank into the female. The female is much harder to set up. Sell the expansion chamber and buy the Palmers Male Stabalizer.
