Yes. Especially if the paint is badly misshapen and dimpled. Drop tests exaggerate the problem though.

Definitely the paint then. I found that the unjamming fin didn't really do a whole lot for me when mine jammed.

The unjam trigger never really does.

Lowering the tension on your Rotor should solve the problem. Check out the video below.

completely. It jams a lot more during drop tests because balls are getting fed close to 50 bps. however at 12.5 it never jams. At least for me.
