Sounds like yer 98c is workin fine to me since its equipped wit an RT. As fer it shootin 2-5 balls thats normal when using the RT, you mightve actually found the "infamous Sweet Spot" on the yer RT, you shouldnt really worry bout it too much, unless theres somethin else but, you cant really explain it. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

I say that the q loader has such a strong feeding force to get high bps that its feeding past you ball detents. -------------

For the flatline, the balls actually should be undersized so they have room to get backspin.
Are multiple balls coming out with jus one shot? If so, this is most likely the ball detent. If your velocity is slow, you may just need to turn it up since you have a longer barrel now. |

Yea I was thinking the same thing. I was wondering where he said he had a q-loader then I went back and re-read the post and saw he didn't. ------------- (I'm a nob with no clue about almost anything...) |

Well the problem is that the balls come at the same time when I shoot them they go far but not that fas asss single shots and it is mostly only the firsy shoot after that they work just fine single shoots. I tried lot of thing I did play with the velocity and I have different type of balls but from time to time it just happen that when I try to shoot the first shoot it fires like 3,4 balls at once and they dont go when I want them and then I have to cover my self with full automatic just to get to cover because I dotn lend the shoot that I want, I was wondering if people with fletline had the same problem ever. I do like the whole set of my gun. ------------- nerko |

I never had that problem wit my Flatline, you might wanna check the ball detent tho, it could be worn out or missing. Btw, I fergot to ask you this, did you install the Flatline yerself? ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

He said 2-5 come out and aren't as strong. The paintballs he's using are probably large bore, and they're getting stuck then finally blasting out. The balls are SUPPOSED to be small in the flatline. That could be one reason there. I believe the 98C uses the front bolt to decide when a ball comes in- it can't be happening in one shot, unless the sear sticks long enough for 2-5 balls to roll in and get past the ball latch. This possibly is highly unlikely, based on your description. I'm pretty sure your paint is just sized wrong. Buy some Evil or Marballizer paint- sometimes you can get Evil in a 500 round bag at proshops for around 20 bucks. If that doesn't remedy the problem, then it just may be the ball detent. Some advice for the future- post questions like these in the tech support forum- Enos himself answers those, and would probably know exactly what it is. ------------- A-5 E-grip Chipley Custom Carbon Graphite 16" Evil Adapter(Spyder) 32 Deg New '03 XChamber Remote Line Gun Sling Sniper f/x Stock LPK 68/4500 HPA R-5 CP Reg JCS Duel Trigger |
