i just got my pilot today, and i already have a problem. that is NOT good. lol. no duh! sorry typing to myself. but anyway, i messed around with it for a while, and then i go to turn it on, and the SEMI and Safety lights turn on, then the semi light started blinking. later, i went and turned it on and the SEMI light didnt go on at all! only the safety light. so i turn it off safe, and i can shoot, but not change modes (3-round burst 6-round burst and full auto)
i know that the problem is confined to the grip frame (most likely the electronics). i know that the switching modes problem is not because it is in LOCK mode, cuz the cap thing is on. PLEASE HELP! thanx

did you mess with the wires in the grip frame. Was the gun bought new, used, traded what?
Make sure none of the wires are ripped. Make sure all wires are plugged into the board. What kind of battery are you using? Is it fully charged?

Yea check your battery and make sure your wires are in good order. Also check if the button itself has any defects.
hope this helps

I called the number that was listed in the manual for electronic support. They said that they think that it is a board problem and that htey will replace it no charge. tho i did forget to ask where to mail it to. anyone know? i'm thinking that it's the same address that i sent the warrenty slip to but im not sure.

Haha, no I'm good with spyders at the moment. I have three to be exact. I had to send my Fasta back to have the shells replaced and they did it pretty quickly.

Alright, bro! I have the solution. The same problem occurred on my gun after I fiddled with it. Open up the grip on the side that displays the firing mode. There should be a little red block. Fire the gun and see if it shakes. Push it down (GENTLY) until it stops. Now retry. If it still doesn't work, I don't know what to do.
