    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    That's really good to hear @andrey. Might be worth having this post as a sticky thread as it's so common in the Ares EFCS. When mine failed, I only used 7.4V 2600mAh LiPo. The first replacement mosfet I got from Ares was the updated longer type that you have there @andrey and the back of the...

    G36 Hop Unit

    Are you talking about the G36 variant or just Maxx hop units in general? All of the Maxx G36 hop units I've purchased up until recently have been amazing, can't fault them, but it's more of a simplistic design that of the M4 variants. @Aj698: if you have the two part hop nub tensioner under...

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    Ares sent me some replacement EFCS boards but there are two flavours of board design.... My original is the bigger 'L' shaped PCB while the one Ares sent is a more updated version that's rectangular shape but overall it was longer... I had problems fitting the back plate with the dust cover...

    G36 Hop Unit

    Hi Aj, I have the Maxx Begadi G36 hop units fitted in several of my G36's and I can say that hands down its the best hop unit for this. As long as you stick with the standard nozzle length, it'll work fine with the maple leaf and Begadi buckings (I can confirm this). No UK supplier as it's a...

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    Hi Andrey, Yes I did get that the bottom of it, after a bit of bench testing and probing, I found that a 3.3V SMD regulator wasn't getting power directly from the battery, this 3.3V SMD regulator powers the hall sensors for the selector and magnet in the sector gear, and following this back, I...

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    UPDATE: So this is the response from Ares technical help... See what you think; 'Our technician said our gearbox cannot support the brushless motor because of the gear ratio. Also, the brushless motor doesn't have enough torque to hold the spring causing the voltage rise. Please try to use...

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    There is a silicone insulating film in the shape of the PCB board, hard to see but it's there, (can see it covering the middle bearing) Upon further testing, the top two FET's are dead (nothing on the volt meter when in diode test mode). I have another working G36 E.F.C.S. mosfet that I'm...

    Warhead motors and ETU's/ ARES EFCS

    Good day airsofters, Has anyone installed any brushless warhead motors in combination with Ares EFCS (electronic fire control system) or any other mosfets and have you had any issues after a while? Namely EFCS's burning out... Seems I'm the only person in the world that's had back luck with...

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    I have to add that I have another Ares G36E that has the same EFCS MOSFET and a warhead motor installed on it too which is still working fine.  I can't see how a brushless motor that draws less current than a brushed can fry power transistors... These are rated for 30V D.C. at  109Amps. Chris

    Ares EFCS fried FET's

    Hello UKAF members. I'm currently having issues with an Ares G36C that keeps blowing it's EFCS (Electronic Firing Control System) mosfet board. It's on its 3rd one now and the problem seems persistent. Upon testing the components on the EFCS circuit board, the FET's (Field effect transistors)...

    Request for 3D printing for a Vz.61 Scorpion tappet plate

    Hello there! I need a few tappet plates 3D printed for a Vz.61 scorpion so was advised by another forum member to put a request out if anyone can help me? I'll probably need a few 3D printed, so if anyone is able to do this for me please PM me with a cost to do it all. File is here: ...

    Vz.61 Scorpion CMG tappet plate

    Reaching out to you guys for some much needed help... I broke the tappet plate on my ASG Vz.61 Scorpion and I'm finding it impossible to source a new one. I believe it's a generic part shared in most CMG/ AEP's so it's the same at the MP7 as well. Been searching for a TM one as the ASG looks...

    Mesh/ Kill flash scope protector sizing

    No it's an Ares one. Thank you for the link though, I'll try them. You'd have thought a 40mm killflash would fit a 40mm scope wouldn't you. Those Chinese eBay sellers are useless!
