As the old topic is locked, lets start a new one.
Gravity 5 As it was in 2010 :
Gravity 5.1 2011 @ the O2 ( not much changed ):
The problems in 5.1 :
* Exposed air tires
* Little bit to heavy
* Not enough room for the bungee cord
* The Ram was really hard to close
* No Sremec option.
* Poor armor on the flipper
So time to get started, cut of the back end:
Also the front:
New custom electronics : ( i will be making a new print for it, this is just temp.)
The print pulses both intake burkerts for the flip for 250 ms, and than it will automatically open the exhaust burkert valve for 3 seconds.
For scremec it opens 1 intake burkert for 100ms, and than it will automatically open the exhaust burkert valve for 3 seconds.
After a test i discoverd the used connectors where very poor, i changed them al for smal andersons
Smal test movie: ( sorry its in dutch)

Bungee cord in the flipper arm:
Test movie ( low pressure of course )

Lets have a look inside:
Also fitted a new reduction and HDPE wheels, before 1:20 now 1:15.
The wheel size is the same height but the depth is reduced, so also the wheel covers are 3/4 cm smaller.
Test drive:
