    Airlab has the HSA Lapping kits in stock

    The ARL clip is super helpful! Lapping is always an improvement to a barrel. Yes it can be time consuming, but it doesn't have to be - you can do as little as you like. It's also really easy and quite therapeutic. You can watch a film or something while you work as it doesn't take much...

    Airlab has the HSA Lapping kits in stock

    The kit comes with an alignment block which makes it easy to keep the same orientation throughout the lapping process.

    Thanks! :) The new sorbo pads are slightly thicker to compensate for spring pre-compression. I need to update the photo on my website... Pre-swiss cheesed pistons are certainly doable. But it would probably add another £15 on top of the price of the piston and I'm not sure if people would be...

    Sorry about the delay in responding. I don't think my notifications were turned on :/ Anyway yeah a MOSFET is a lot like a solid state relay. I'll be stocking the new BTC Chimera soon which has about as many bells and whistles as you can fit onto a 'MOSFET'. Although at this point the term...

    Wow I haven't done a proper update in ages. There's a LOT of new products in stock. Lonex internals + flash mags (cheaper than anywhere else as far as I'm aware). Siegetek gears - no introduction necessary! HSA Barrel Lockdown Kits - really nice, easy to install accuracy upgrade. Also TerminusX...

    Glad you like the guides. :) I'm planning to add pictures to make them all a bit clearer. Sorbothane is a trademarked name for a specific type of soft polyurethane. It has very good shock absorption and vibration dampening properties and is commonly used by audiophiles/sound engineers to...

    Battery Connectors

    In terms of current handing, Deans, XT60s, Traxxas and gold bullets (4mm at least) all perform the same in an AEG. The differences are in ease of use, ease of soldering and size. I personally like XT60s closely followed by 4mm bullets.
