    Posted: 21 April 2016 at 3:23pm
So i have a  new tippmann a5, got it for Christmas. I decided to buy a response trigger for the marker but it don't seem to work. I went out and bought the 1/8 banjos and hoses for the trigger and cyclone feeder. i have ninja with a shp regulator so air pressure aint my problem.  help

You have no leaks at the RT Line from valve to cylinder ?

Did you adjust the small setscrew of the RT (right side where the hose goes into the grip)?

Adjust RT Vid.

Yes i have adjusted the small screw when i open it all the way the little silver cylinder moves but now with nearly enough force to push the trigger out... There isn't any leak that can be detected.
 I had it sent to a local paintball shop tech and they had it for 3 weeks. They also had me give them all the stock parts too.... they informed me they fixed my problem with the fps issue but couldn't get the trigger to work now... . my original problem was that the marker wouldn't cycle with every shot and it wouldn't shoot over 100fps. they told me the issue was a 3 skull power tube i had installed and once they used the stock part it fired fine..... I don't even know where to begin im so frustrated.

Mmhhh so your A5 isn´t stock like it came from factory ? Or was the powertube the only upgrade(not tippmann part) ???

I know about Problems with alutubes, the bore for the hammer is to tight so the hammer will get slow before he hits the valve, result low fps and also to short time to fill the cyclone or RT Zylinder. May the holes for airflow to Cyclone and RT are not in a prefect line(have a look if you see the plastic from the powertube or valve alu if you unscrew the gas lines of RT and Cyclone).

so i have the original power tube in now. the only upgrades on the marker are the quick exhaust unit, full cyclone upgrade, zero kick hammer, 1/8 banjo s and tubing. I checked the alignment on all the fitting. making sure the inside holes line up with the tubes. this seemed to give me a little more pressure to the responce trigger but not enough to push the trigger back out to rest. Ugh this is frustrating.

OK i´m pretty shure the Zero kick hammer is the Problem (not enough weight to open the valve Long enough).
If you use that hammer you should have a softer valve spring and a voluminizer to have a higher gasflow.

My one is stock and she´s running fine and fast enough i wont spend Money for other parts cause the upgrade is very low for much cash. Sounds good but isn´t !!!

Alright. I have removed the zerokick hammer and now installed the original.  I also have remover the T banjo fitting and now am using both air holes on the side. I have a 1/8 tube running to the response trigger and a 1/16 tube running to the upgraded cyclone system....... and my tanks empty..... funny... so im gonna have to wait till friday to test out the new combination.
