barryhi33 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 If you didn't know if a pit lane was left hand or right hand - how would you identify it ?When you look at pictures the appear visually the same but there must be a difference !

Twigman Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Is the flipper 'fixed' or does it move? If it is fixed the track piece is a pit exit.if it moves it is pit entrance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryhi33 Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 Ah ok - so one end has a moving flipper and the other is fixed - just curios, but why does the exit track have a sensor ? - obviously the entrance needs a sensor to trigger the routing but not the exit .......... is it a hang over from the pit lane game ?

Twigman Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 the exit has a sensor to make it possible to reverse the hand of the pits by swapping flippers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodcote Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Switch them, yes. Easily, not exactly... There is a thread over on Slot Forum called "Convert LH pit lane to RH" which describes the mod and has a few folks mulling over whether to do the mod or buy the RH pit lane. I'm mulling that over too. With the ARC Pro base being uni-directional, I have to turn it round to use my LH pit lane, but am thinking whether I'd prefer a RH lane and the power base the 'correct' way round. I'm pretty sure the ARC Pro Platinum set comes with a RH pit lane, so there may be some around split from sets at a good price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
