Revvy Paddles?

[sneakyhacker420]

i just got my x-board revvy today, and it looks like it has a newly designed paddle (pic attached)

my friends x-board revvy has the old flat style paddle in it with the 4 prongs

does anyone else have a revvy with these paddles?

i still plan on getting a vortex impeller soon... just wondering wbout it right now

[ChucktheMAGician]

I got a new revy last month and it had that new paddle in it. I ordered a vortex w/ it also so I can't tell you how good the stock paddle did!

Um.. that is REALLY strange and a new one on me.
Mine has flat paddles, my brothers has flat paddles (pre-be)
I dont get it

you prolly wont notice any difference at all if you get the impeller, just because the one you currently have looks almost exactly the same as an impeller.

i see that BE actually did some improving for once.. i also noticed that my x-board no longer has the delay

Actualyl them impeller has more prongs and IMO it works sweet, it scoops away the balls and drops them in the tube

[EsPo]

they almost have the exact same shape, except the jmj/evil ones are more rounder and have more prongs, as previously stated.

the reason behind that as told to me by Terry Nuemaster of BE is twofold:
1) faster feeding. it has been shown that works better and so they wanted that

2) its quieter. the paddles dont hit the sides anymore(you old revvie users will notice scratches where the paddles go) and so it doesnt make as much noise and reduces friction adn therefore increasing speed

a little light on the issue

thx kev.. now leave, you know to much stuff about....stuff.

Is it just me or does it look like ball can get jammed a lot easier with those paddles? There just seems to be a huge gap in between the paddles and the walls of the loader.

[Kevmaster]

retro, youd be amazed how much testing goes on at BE...i havnt used the new paddles, but i am told(by a BE rep so its semi biased) it works excellent

[sneakyhacker420]

yes, i just put some marbs in it and let it empty... DAMN DOES IT FEED FAST

no more x-board delay, and it lines them up and puts them into the neck just like the vortex impeller... only a couple small ball gaps when it was feeding that i noticed

bravo VL!

[Brak]

they are curved becuase the flat ones supposedly scrape against the inside of the loader and make it feed slower. i have an old one with flat panels and i curved mine up just in case thats true

[BajaBoy]

yea, also i was reading a wile back when the 12vt had metal paddles they told u to bend them just like the new BE paddle.


this diesnt really pertain to anything, but you know

[sneakyhacker420]

metal paddles + BE/VL paint = offical blender

LOL
