Is it normal for the RT and the cyclone feeder to stop working at low pressures?

Yeah upset me also the first time. If you press the deal on the cyclone you can manual feed to shoot your last few shots from the tank.
Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken!

Well i'm glad I wasn't in the middle of a game. I was messing around in my back yard. Alright well i'm glad I didn't break anything. It seems to be the only downside to the cyclone feed system. But otherwise I love the R-T. It's going to be expensive because I empty my hopper so fast.

Thats right. The cyclone and RT stop working just below 800psi. This is only when the tank is very low, or its very cold out though. So fill er up, clip er on, and keep on shooting!

Alright well thats good to know. I'm still not sure why the air started to leak out of the barrel though. I took off the tank to see if it was empty and it seemed low. So I screwed it back on and then it just leaked air, and it was just coming out of the barrel.
My Set-Up:
A-5 w/ Reponse Trigger
16" DYE Boomstick
32 Degrees Expansion Chamber

It's all I need for the rec ball I play once or twice a month.
