Quick Question

[AutomagN2]

When i'm shooting my RT fast, my nitro pressure goes down, then i stop for a second, and it recharges and i shoot etc...

Is it normal for the pressure to drop pretty low while u shoot very very fast? i'm just wondering if i should get a new tank/drop forward.

[spazzed]

Technically, that depends on how fast you're shooting.

How fast are you shooting, and what tank do you have?

Is there drop-off, or spikes? If it's spikes, change the reg-seat.

[BlackVCG]

What kind of tank are you using? What is your output pressure? Do you visibly notice your balls dropping sooner at a higher ROF? All guage needles will drop down under rapid fire a little bit, and then bounce back. As long as you don't visibly notice drop-off in how far your paint goes, then it should be fine.

yeh, some of the HPA tanks wont be able to keep up with the RT trigger system, although it shouldnt cause noticeable drop off...the RT needs ~400 to run, and the tank shouldnt drop below 500psi even in extreme rapid fire

one shot drains to 600 then bounces back to its 800, if i shoot really fast it will drop all the way to 0. I'm buying a new tank soon with a built in 800psi reg. Its a nitro duck with the big old threads on the tank, and i believe the dropforward is a nitro duck as well, since the tank doesn't have a reg on it.

Drop forward really doesn't have any bearing on this... Unless you've got one of your air lines clogged.

i had this problem before
and my suggestion might not fit yours

i had a screw type on/off
i found that when i screw it ALL the way on...it drops
when i screw it more the half way in works fne

hope this helps a little

Since you said your tank is a Nitro Duck, I have now narrowed it down to your tank being the problem. Nitro Ducks are the worst air systems, period.
