Trenta Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 Hello again - I have an FF6 flapper - however I have problems with the wings of the birds coming off the flapper arms - meaning I have to go out and reset it all the time. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix it? I was thinking of bending the point of the flapper arm back, but I am not sure this would work, and it would make mounting the wings more difficult? Thanks in advance, again!

jcbbracken Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 i put a plastick washer just pass the point so the wing does not slide down so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Boggy Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Doesn`t the FF6 flapper have front facing `U` shaped spikes which you turn the wings through 90 Degrees and then push them back on ? Easier to do than to explain. I have a FF3 or 4, not sure which and the attachment of the wings is foolproof, or maybe not in Trenta`s case OB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockybasher Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 Make sure the wings are broken at the shoulder joint so they are free to flap !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balotelli Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 Easy fix. Get some fishing bait bands, put it over the wing tyne, put the spike through the wing and stretch the band back over the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
