Hi, I have installed on my X7 a Flat Line, and work's great, but sometimes when i shoot my barrel break the balls. I try with other balls and work's a little better, but in 500 shoots, less or more, the barrel break a ball again. When this happenned I check the cyclon and there's not rest of paint, so i think that it's the flat whose cause the problem. This start happen when i was installed the flat, with the stock barrel, the gun never break a ball and never chop. What can be? My gun is a X7 + R/T + flatline- Thank's and Regards. PS: excuse my english but i from argentina and i don't speak english so well

| Is the velocity too high? The flatline works best at about 270 fps. A high velocity causes balls to break. |

Ok como esta la temperatura donde estas Jugando? Mientras mas Frio mas facil es de que la pintura se rompa quado viaje por el dentro del barril.
Pero much tiene que ver con la cualidad de la pintura que usted use. Donde fue manufacturada? en los E.E.U.U.? Si es pintura hecha en Norte America puede que sea que sea muy vieja para el Flatline. Tambien la velocidad de "270" es mas oh menos para el Flatline de la A-5 y el Modelo 98. Trata de Buscar su propio lugar. En my A-5 yo lo pongo at 277 para mas distancia Y consistencia. Si tengo errores perdoname no escribo en espanol desde que my abuela fallecia ace anos. -------------

| Temperature can play a big part in it. Sometimes you can't shoot paint and not break it unless the temperature is above 80*. |
