Problem with collisions

Hello. I want to make a simple pinball game. I found this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RQkhRgrqs4 and I have the same problems with collisions.
Any ideas?

It may be flipper moving too fast, so that ball is on one side of it on first frame, and on the other side on the next frame. Collisions are not solution to everything, sometimes we have to do some math and apply impulses to the ball manually.

Or it may be that flipper is not rotating in physical sense, but just set to different orientation from script on each frame - then it can probably be fixed. Or not.
