AirsoftGray24

I actually have a guarder SP110 spring but wasn't sure if i should install it yet do you think it might be worth installing that when I re wire my gearbox.

Wicked ! Thanks so much for your help will order the wire now. Hopefully this puts me on the right track. I am getting close to 25 rps which is my goal, I'm actually really happy with the performance, I just wanted to reduce the heat as much as possible but thanks again i appreciate your time I will post the outcome shortly !

Yes I do have deans connectors. I wasn't planning on running an 11.1v I don't like the idea of that in airsoft guns also you said 25c - 30c and I'm only running a 20c would you suggest I'm putting too much strain on my lipo with this setup. Apologies with the lack of knowledge on batteries they do confuse me sometimes ? Thanks for your suggestions though

I know there has probably been so many people asking this question but I simply cannot put my finger on the cause. So I have a version 2 gearbox that came stock in a Dytac Invader recon. The things that are not stock are: SHS 12:1gears, SHS high torque Motor, Pro arms motor connectors and an asg ultimate cylinder head. Now my problem is that after a couple minutes of on and off shooting the wires, motor and lipo are getting warm, the warmth never really gets to the point where its hot to touch but its like a phone that has been used for a substantial amount of time. But I know a lipo shouldn't increase in temperature at all. I am very confident that shimming isn't the issue as I have shimmed a few guns now and the bevel and pinion are meshing well. The wires that came in the gun I quite thin and crap, 20 awg i think and am thinking of re wiring to 16 awg but i don't think that will solve the problem entirely i have checked numerous times for shorts in the gearbox, oh and forgot to mention I am running a GATE NANO SSR mosfet that does not have active breaking. Besides this slight warmth my gun is running really well and the heat doesn't seem to effect performance whats so ever. The only thing i can think of is that the lipos I am running on this gun are 1450 MAH 7.4V 20 C and am thinking that this is not quite enough amps for the setup I am running, however am not really sure what the stock spring is in the dytac. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone has any suggestions ???
