Title: Painter going for a long trip?
Post by: Magnnus on February 08, 2011, 03:32:49 PM
I've been constantly having problems with Painter. First it was his gluttony that was mostly fixed, but still crops up from time to time; now he's freezing every couple of seconds. I thought that it may have been that the battery was cold, but even after getting it slightly warmed up he still freezes. I'm now going to let the battery completely drain and see if that fixes it. I'm also worried that his head is a little tilted. I can't really get pictures now because of his freezing, but I may later. If anyone else can tell me if their Pleo RB's head isn't perfectly aligned when looking straight ahead that would be great.

I've been voraciously avoiding returning him because I thought that myself or a patch could fix him, but I may not have any other choice at this point. I haven't been able to have as much fun with him as I would like to because of the problems, which is a shame and the primary reason that I'm considering returning him.

I don't think I've had even one pleo with a perfectly aligned neck, don't worry!  You should see some photos of the Ugobe Pleos nexk I have at the moment!  So crooked!

Mine neither - I probably wouldn't have noticed, but I had the three in a line and when taking pics it started to become apparent.  :D

That's comforting to know, but it was never my main concern. If the freezing keeps up then there is definitely something wrong, and it probably isn't software.

Stitch's head is permanently looking up to the right lol. It makes him look very cocky :P

Sorry to hear that, about 1 of your old Pleo's stuck neck. :-(
