Flatline: Recipe for Success (Must Read!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original Post by Timberwolf
There have a been a lot of posts in this and other forums regarding issues with the Flatline. Most of these issues can be corrected by following the procedures outlined here.
This thread is a result of myself and several other forum users getting together and hammering out the fine details. Thanks to all of you, especially AlabamaMan, Mrguru, Archellion, Daewoo, and Doom!
matchups by InvestorGuy and has some helpful Flatline tips:
1) incorrect paint (bad quality or wrong cal)
2) barrel not internally aligned properly
3) not at proper fps
4) if XX2, not regulated
5) gun is tilted
6) barrel is not clean or not cleaned properly
7) weather is too wet and/or humid or cold
8) you have fired close to 250,000 balls and it may be time for a reblast
For your absolute best results, you must meet ALL of the above conditions.
For your convenience, we have explained each of them in detail below:
1) incorrect paint (bad quality or wrong cal)
The standard "blow" test won't work. The ball needs to be able to freely backspin in the barrel in order to work. Just go with good quality, small bore paint. Werks, Marbs, Evil, Allstars, El Tigre', or possibly Premiums.
Also, be sure to read InvestorGuy's thread mentioned above about paint-to-barrel match and the Kreepe-X thread addresses this in detail.
2) barrel not internally aligned properly
Since cant (lack of) is very important for proper functionality, it is important that the barrel be properly aligned inside the shroud. If it's off even a small margin, your shots will curve left or right (depending on the cant).
3) not at proper fps
The proper fps with your Flatline barrel on should be from 250fps to 270fps. Be sure to experiment some to get the ideal range for yours.
4) if XX2, not regulated
Since the proper fps has such a dramatic effect on the accuracy, you would be well advised to install a regulator if you're shooting with XX2.
5) gun is tilted
Be sure there is no right/left tilt on the marker as you are shooting it. Leaning it, even a small amount, to the left or right will cause the ball to curve. Naturally, this could also be used to your advantage. Take a case of paint and just go out somewhere to practice and get a feel for this effect.
6) barrel is not clean or not cleaned properly
This one is a bit tricky as there are several different methods. Unfortunately, there is nothing said about this in the owners manual. One method is the "water/soap/rinse/squeegy method" (hopefully self explanitory). Others report that an armson barrel brush and pro wash foam/soap also works. The bottom line here is that the inside of the barrel gets clean and there is no gelatin or gelatin-like residue. Don't use anything too harsh or abrasive.
7) weather is too wet and/or humid or cold
Weather can have a dramatic effect on your Flatline. Moisture from humid weather can get inside the barrel (not good), or on a really hot day, the paintballs may swell, causing breakage. Since the paintball takes a small bump to create the spin, cold, brittle paintballs may also break inside the barrel.
8)you have fired close to 250,000 balls and it may be time for a reblast. After so many shots (per daewoo, Tippmann says 250,000), the roughness inside the Flatline may begin to smooth out, negating the backspin principal. In this case, call Tippmann support and arrange for them to "reblast" your barrel.
Obviously, the Flatline barrel system isn't just something you screw into your marker and forget about. It requires additional practice and care to maintain effectiveness. However, when it is performing as it should, there is nothing like it, so follow the above procedures and KEEP it shooting good!
