Yeah, active breaking is very hard on motors. Luckily there is a lot of leeway for adjusting the motor height and it only causes a problem at the extremes. In some gearboxes there's a window to see the Pinion and Bevel gears mesh together. This way you can remove the grips so you can see the engagement and mark the adjuster screw where it should be. If there isn't a window in the gearbox its possible to drill a small observation hole but obviously at a risk. Another effecive but long way is to open the gearbox and attach the motor to the half shell so you can see the gears mesh clearly. Mark the adjustment and its perfect. Most people will just screw it all the way in and then undo one or two turns. (Listen to it as you undo half a turn at a time)

Go for the one you like the look of. As above, Specna and DoubleEagle are both recommended, just avoid Nuprol. Check the body material if that's important to you. Some are polymer and some are metal. Not much structural difference between them but the weight is different if that's something you care about. Following from what Roger said above, first thing to do when you receive your new toy is CLEAN THE BARREL. A strip of cloth with Isopropyl alcohol or window cleaner attached to the cleaning rod. Then the fun bit, thoroughly test it by shooting a good couple of hundred BBs through it to make sure it works properly within the 14 day returns window. Then go and have fun with it at a game site ?

Howdy ?

With that stupid rate of fire I'm not surprised it shits itself

I don't think you'll get an accurate reading loading 1 BB into a shell. The gas will go freely through the other two barrels so fps will read quite a bit lower

Howdy ?

Yeah, I have a Parrot ANAFI drone (which I don't use much) but the OP was specifically talking about planes I think.

Nope, tried it a few years ago with a cheap entry plane but got bored flying back and forth and doing loops. I'd only be interested in head tracked articulated FPV which is too expensive at the mo.

Its USD I don't see one in my future. Its going to be annoying if several people have these at a game. Luckily the range seems rather poor.

While it definitely sounds cool I bet airsoft sites in UK would get complaints from nearby residents if it became popular.

Perhaps someone will comment who actually has experience with both. In the meantime I can say I own one of the older Specna Edge 2 models and I like it a lot. Unless someone can point out a specific flaw or benefit of either one I think it will come down to your choice in the looks. Also check the material of the body in case that's important to you. Metal or polymer/plastic. Maybe look for disassembly videos to see inside the gearbox and compare. Good luck

Could be that the motor is set too high. Try turning the adjustment screw counter clockwise half a turn at a time. If its not that then its probably a dying battery. Would be worth getting a 7.4v LiPo and decent charger. (There are no LiPo specific motors. Its just that LiPos deliver more power in each trigger pull)

If you don't mind not having authenticity, its possible to attach a CYMA CM352 stock with a bit of work.

I've also got one of those and it does perform very well. Definitely a good first pew if he's into the M4 thing. Anything by Specna, CYMA, JG or Double Eagle would be decent performers in the budget price range. Main thing is to clean and test new pews to avoid lemons. Duno about Lancer Tactical. Anyone have any experience with them?

"Out with the old, in with the new" ??

T'is the way of all things... ?

Can you use a magnet on a string or one of those telescopic ones? At least its a relatively big thing to find. Just wait until a tiny spring goes flying and you don't know where because it doesn't make any noise when it lands ?

I do feel a bit sorry for people who don't have a clue about driving but they're also a danger.

Yeah I believe it. In my town there have recently been two cases of cars driving into shop fronts from the parking spaces ?

If you've checked the current prices it doesn't matter what he paid. Offer £400 and go up to £450 to 'sweeten' the deal. (£475 if you really want it) Otherwise be prepared to walk away...

Good GBB weather we've been having ??
