Hi, i have an rt micro and it doesnt seem to be running right. i dont have a lvl 10 yet (soon). ok, the rt doesnt seem to be kicking very well at all, it can be quite easy to short stroke, there is no sweetspot (not worried bout that). running it on crossfire 68 stubby. have recently had some work done on the trigger to reduce sideways play, polished the bolt/power tube. cleaned regularly. everything looks fine. anyone have any ideas how to tweak the rt and how to get the trigger feeling crisper and a tad lighter?
this isnt really a huge issue, still works and fires paint well with few to no breaks. but it could run better. Thanks

Your probably gonna need an adjustable tank to get a better result. You said your using a crossfire stubby, I assume that's pre-set. High or low pressure? Using a benchy trigger frame too right? If so, try out an I frame for a better trigger pull.


And welcome to AO. :)

Ya that's the benchy. The I frame is better in just about every way. If your looking for a better trigger pull, I'd recomend the I frame. As far as the tank, I think those are the 800 or 850 pre-set, so you should be good there. Your problems may, and I say may, just be from the benchy. You can put an I frame on a micro no problem, just make sure it's the newer style with the hump.

sweet, umm if i said i was poor and couldnt afford a new frame, is there any ways to simply play with what i got to improve it? sorry to be awkward, really appreciate your help

I don't see why not, it works for you now right? You just think it could be a little better? Ya, a new I frame is kinda expensive, but you do get what you pay for.

For those who like to tinker, some have gotten good results with the benchy triggers. There might be some old posts on what they did if you searched, or just ask outright in the forums. It's been a long time since I even held one of those, so I'm not the guy to talk to, concerning that.
