ruskitseller Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) Hello chaps, after months, I have my gat back from the airsoft tech. It arrived in poor condition and the box was pretty much ripped in half. It seems to not be working anyway and it does this: Any ideas or does it have to go back? I have tried different batteries and it doesn't change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXvw74tS9Cc Thanks in advance!

Colin Allen Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 According to the troubleshooting guide, a green flashing light means that either the motor is disconnected or the brushes are worn out. ruskitseller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you mate, the question is I suppose I need to ask the retailer/tech - how did that happen? The tech had the RIF for months - more than 5, got it going - then emailed me to say it jammed up on testing so he had to take it apart again. A month or so again later and it comes back like this. Maybe that happened in transit? I think Parcel force chucked the box about as this is what it looked like and there are impact marks to the RIF itself and the stock catch is bent and moving so the stock can no longer be properly secured. When it arrived, the parcel was bending and I actually thought the RIF had snapped. Luckily it wasn't that bad, but still not great... This has also resulted in the cerakote finish being marked so PF must have dropped it hard. Shame because I have never had an issue with PF before. Also, one of the wires connecting the mosfet pops out occasionally. Then there is no green light until I put it back in. It is a new warhead brushless motor too. Very strange! Thanks again Edited April 20 by ruskitseller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruskitseller Posted April 20 Author Share Posted April 20 (edited) Hello Mark! Yes mate I think you are right. I have emailed the retailer, email response time from them varies but will see what they say. Although, I believe PF make it pretty much impossible to claim for RIFS? They also sent it PF 24 although...that's another story. First, they tried delivery and no one was in, fair enough they take it to a post office...the post office that is 20 minutes away, rather than the one that is 2 minutes away. Ok fine, but when picking it up - sorry no can doosy. The PO refused to release it saying that the name on the parcel was wrong, even though I had the slip. Ok will email PF, which I did and after countless daft responses (in one of them they said the name wasn't wrong but the address was!) I got nowhere really and arranged for a re delivery on a Monday when the wife would be home. Instead they try delivering it on the Tuesday when no one is in. Retailer said they have no control over redelivery, but I rearrange it again for Saturday, which they did, but delivered it with the box in two and damage to the RIF...too much time in transit I think. I have emailed the retailer since with questions and pictures and the video so will see what happens...
