Is it worth getting a rip drive on my halo B for my ion?

[kuramakid]

Hey I want to know if it is worth getting a rip drive for my halo b hopper. I have an upgraded ion, it has a qev, new trigger, new barrel, and im working on getting a new regulator and a black heart board. So should I get a rip drive on my halo or not?

they do help, but are not needed. a common misconception about rip drives is that it makes your halo faster, which it doesnt. it is there so if your battery dies, you can manually push balls down the feedneck. if you are looking for spedd upgrades, i would reccomend a v35 board,empire board, or angry board.

i would definately get one. they aren't that expensive and if your batteries die in the finals or something you can still shoot paint. it's also helpful if your halo get jammed, you can spin it backwards and unjam it.
