Eclipse Ego Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What tank should I use for the Ego?
A: Eclipse reccomends using a HP tank, but if you must use LP, only use a Crossfire, because the recharge is so fast!
Q: What hopper should I use on the Ego?
A: If you have the old detents, I would reccomend an Eggy for security, but you can use a halo, and I personally have used a Reloader b with a 4 battery pack with no problems, HOWEVER, when the new BLACK detents arrive, feel free to use anything you want!
Q: What are some good, legal settings, that'll still be fast?
A: Stock. =) If you don't like that, try putting your Tol to 20-30, and band to 65
Q: Where is my serial number?
A: Take off your battery, you will find it under there!
Q: Why am I chopping?
A: Try a ball setting of 2, and make sure your loader isnt too powerful if you are using the old detents, also, lube your ram and clean your eyes!
Q: Why is the ego so slow dry firing?
A: Access your settings, go into Timing, and raise the ROF to 30. But beware, if your eyes fail in a game, you are now shooting 30 bps with eyes off, so tryputting it to 15-17 bps.
Q: What is the maintenence on the Ego?
A: It's very low, lubing the ram, bolt o rings, and LPR, just like most others.
