How can I make my gun stop bursting in semi?
« on: July 14, 2015, 12:02:42 PM »
I recently purchased a ICS transforM4 261 an a G&P PEQ box with an 11.1 lipo to go with as this gun has almost no battery space in the hand guard. Since the PEQ box had a deans connector I had to replace the small tamiya connector to a deans connector. When I shoot the gun on semi it almost always bursts or does a cycle an a quarter resulting in weak follow up shots. I would love to know how I can fix this so if anyone could shed some light on this for me it would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.  I'm new to the community an the sport and am trying to get geared up before the winter when I assume the airsoft "season" begins out here in AZ seeing as there aren't many recent posts in the local games. Any recommendations as far as internal upgrades for my specific rifle?

You've got too much battery.  Swap to a 7.4v.

Or install a AB Mosfet.

AB mosfet is not the solution, I mean, it is in short term, but its a bandaid and causes premature wear on the motor.

You want to get a stiffer spring, and tune the fps by short stroking your piston, that's the most correct way of correcting overspin if you dont want to lower your batteries voltage.

switching to a 7.4v lipo would be the route to go for now, especialy if you dont know how to get in and tune your gun.
i dont recommend running an 11.1lipo in your gun unless you have a mosfet installed.
alot of people run the lower powered 11.1lipo's and say they have no problems. but id rather be safe than sorry.
if you want to run the 11.1v lipo bring it over to me at the command post and i can tune it for you.
never underestimate the things you dont know.
P90 is no longer the b***h gun!

Right on thank you! If I bring it over to you can also install a mosfet?
