| I bought a Tippmann Cyclone Feeder and when it cycles, it is allowing two balls to enter the chamber. I notice tha the paddles are rotating too far. It feeds one ball in as it rotates but when it stops rotating, the second ball jsut falls right down behind the first ball, causing a ball break. Any idea's? |

Welcome to the forums. Which gun is it? Maybe check to see if you forgot to put the detent back in or maybe in backwards, it's easy to do. This might be moved to the proper section in the forums as well.  ------------- Imagine there’s a picture of your favourite thing here. |

First, what is a detent? :) second, what is the proper section, i wasn't sure so I picked this one. Also, how does one post a picture? When I click the button, it allow me to select a pic from my laptop.

| I just googled it and no, I don't have the detent in backwards. In fact by project salvo works great with the grvity feeder, but breaks do to chopper. Thats why I bought the cyclone. I have a picture that would explain everything but I can't post it:) |

Here is a link to the picture: https://plus.google.com/photos/112345302366100291747/albums/5860189524881901137" rel="nofollow - https://plus.google.com/photos/112345302366100291747/albums/5860189524881901137 Copy and paste the link and it will show you the issue. The paddles are not stopping the balls from free falling into the chamber.

Unless I am not seeing something it appears to be fine. The paddles aren't supposed to block the chamber. -------------

I can't see how two balls can feed, I looked at mine and it seems impossible. Have you got this sorted out yet? ------------- Imagine there’s a picture of your favourite thing here. |
