Richochet Problem?

[NeilS300]

I have a 9vot Richochet AK. Yesterday when I was playing my hopper was really wiggin out. When I shoot the hopper spins like its supposed to, but sometimes when I DIDNT shoot it would spin for no reason. I would have to keep my hopper off until I was about to shoot. Do you think its time to get a new hopper, or do you know whats going on with it?

anybody?

Were you moving when it agitated? Sometimes (not alot) I will bump my gun and a ball will move a little bit and trip the switch.

Sometimes I was moving, but other times I was sitting still. On the feedneck the shell is cracked a little. I think that it might of messed up the position of the tap that the balls hit to make it spin. I'm either going to get a new shell or get a new hopper.

I had the same problem awhile for mine. Ok, take the thing apart and check the connections between the control board and the sensor, sometimes it comes loose and activates when it is bumped or moved. It should work after that, if not send it back to ricochet, they have a pretty good service department.

pull it apart and clean the sensor pad and look for any exposed wires. IF you send Rico an email they may send you a new set of shells for free. I have the old ver 1.0 rico told them I needed shells and they sent a set to me priority mail free o' charge!

hehe just be carefull when you are pulling it apart, one time i was pulling out the board and motor to do my routine cleaning of my equipment and not realizing i had the board in my hand but the motor was hanging on the wires, well my bad luck just had to prove it's existance that day and the motor just fell off of the wires, luckily soldering isn't too hard and i got it working in no time
