| Re: The Tippmann A-5 For Dummies + Some General Paintball Info very nice!! thanks for all the info. I have a Lighting Rod in my cyclone its made of anodized aluminum and is way stronger than the stock plastic one. no flexing under stress such as rapid fire! If you going to do the RT mod do the whole vortex mod aswell! Just a warning to those who have squishy paddles. I have found mine have stretched in the center hole. so they are no longer keyed to the shaft!! they are now useless!! a serious design flaw!! they should of being molded with a metal insert to prevent this!! So if you start chopping for no reason... check that the paddles are still keyed to the shaft! |
