Impeller vs. New Paddle System

[tobz]

I just purchased a 12v revvy with x.board. It has the 4 paddles bent upward at a near 90 degree angle. Could someone please do time trials with this new paddle system vs. a vortex impeller? I will still need to justify the upgrade by outshooting it with my cocker first . Thanks!

from my experience, the vortex impeller is better. I have not done any scientific speed tests, but I have noticed that the vortex impeller does a better job of getting the balls down the hole - - especially the last few. Generally, when you are down to the last 5-8 balls in the hopper, the paddles have a tendancy to bounce them around in the hopper for a while before they finally find their way into the feed hole. This is almost non-exixtant with the vortex impeller.

I reccomend them.

the only difference i see in the two is that the impeller has a more gradual curvey look rather than the bent look of the new paddles. somebody did a big experiment on the old paddles vs the impeller.
