rainbird falcon 6504

I put in 4 falcon 6504 rotors. They push the limit of my system and are at the end of > 200 ft of PVC Pipe. I know I have some presssure drop by connecting them with 1/2 inch funny pipe (they have a 1 " female connection). Is there a better way to connect them to my system that will allow less pressure drop?

yeah with 1" fittings and enough water pressure and supply to handle the heads. That's the ticket!
