tweak your setup a little. Also are you sure it chopped or did two balls collide half way down the barrel.

Welcome to my world, I chopped like 10 of every 50 shots with my emag with LX, thats why I ditched the emag and got a timmy, ever since the timmy, I have only chopped 2 times, that was because of damaged eyes.

err, chopping 10 of every 50 seems like you didnt have the lvl 10 tuned right. but thats just what it sounds like to me, i'm nobody :)

yep, when your lvl 10 is tuned right it will 98% of the time not chop

I sent the gun to BlackVCG, to get checked out and he returned it to me, in perfect working order, one day of practice, I went back to chopping.

haha got it from my parents for christmas, what a gift right? :rolleyes: ;)

I knew I wouldn't even bother try to use it in game, so I shot it off my porch, boy oh boy was that I mess, I didn't even bother shooting those last 30 balls or so just b/c I didnt' feel like cleaning 15 more balls up.

LX can chop. Especially if you're using the gold spring and brittle paint.

If you aren't using a force feed loader and a loose paint to barrel fit, then expect to get some chops every now and then.

I now recommend if you're running vertical feed to not use the gold spring. The red and long gray spring are the best springs for a vertical feed setup. I use the gold spring in my E-Mag, but then again I have an 18V warp setup.

When I was playing at college, our rival team was using IR3s and Timmies. They were always chopping and breaking like mad in the cold weather we would get in the winter and my team with E-Mags would usually never have a problem.

It really just depends on how the gun is setup and finding paint that your gun likes and sticking with it.

For the record, I worked on Slipknot's gun a LONG time ago and I've changed some things I do with LX since then, but I still took it out and ran a hopper of PMI Premium through it with his barrel. I got a couple of pinches because I was using a VL Revy, but no chops.

How? do you bypass the board? or do you have a regulator and really mean 12v? There is a thread in the workshop about this and I'd be interested in hearing about your setup.

Wow I have had three Level X's with no chops, using crap BE seconds over the last couple years with no problem. What do they have it tuned too? I generally use a dollar bill to check it.

word.. My hypermag use to chop on me like no other.. Timmy chopped a couple times, but that was due to eye misalignment.. DM4 hasn't chopped yet :headbang:

Shooting my emag at 250 fps (indoor field speed) will chop if the loader is not feeding fast enough. But LX is really ment for closer to 300fps range to work effectively. Then is works flawlessly. Even with crappy dented mis-shapen paint.
