  1. It might be foxed with a new tappet spring, or cutting a loop or two from the spring you have in already, to tighten it up and put more tension on the nozzle.

    But

    If you try not filling the mags completely and the issue resolves then I'd look to either bind or clip the magazine spring if it's a magazine that's already had significant use. If however it's a new magazine I'd try filling it completely, and leaving it a while, then trying again as the time spent under compression will take some if the strength out of it.

  2. I've had grips with sections of relief in them for tape switches to sit in, mostly vertical grips and bipod types. in the end I've given up on them, the angle is never quite right for my hand positions or length of fingers.

    I started using heat shrink or tape on better grips and more recently I picked up some sectional elastic sleeves and they have been great.

     

     

     

  3. As you mentioned don't opt for a clone. One of the fpv guys I fly with opened a clone up out curiosity and it wasn't a good thing to seeing long that people are buying these and then charging large lipos with them.

     

    If your looking at a new charger I'd suggest looking at hobby shops. I use hobbyrc.co.uk a lot and the customer service has always been great. They stock sky rc and idst chargers, both of which are solid and worth a look.

  4. I've mixed capacity before as the packs are the same cell count but don't mix cell counts (different total voltage).

    If all your packs are resting at the same voltage then its OK.

    For a good guide it's worth having a run through videos by Joshua Bardwell as a good guide.

    If you do decide that it's not for you then I'd look at a multipack charger.

    Skyrc and isdt both do a good duel charger, it's effectively two chargers sharing a psu, but you can set each one separately.

    I can vouch for the fact it looks great on the sight, and with a poly carbonate protector it should be BB-proof, rather than sacrificial.

    I picked up one of this sellers protectors the other day, for a light, and the quality is good.

  6. You'll need an aeg buffer tube with mounting hardware, then you'll likely have to cut down the mounting tube to match the length required in the buffer tube or make a spacer.

    You'll also need an aeg sling plate to seal the back of the receiver and guide the wiring into the tube.

    Ak2m4.co.uk is a good place to start for buffer tube, they had some with hardware included.

  7. Like the other voices here, I am showing the signs of joyful abuse of the body over the years.

    Multiple reconstruction surguies has taught me there is no substitute for continuous conditioning.

    I started, many moons ago, using a program called romwod, range of movement worked on daily,  it's an Internet based video program of daily stretches and holds for strength and conditioning and its been great. It instantly helped me and I find it easier to fit in than classes, gym, etc.

     

    On days where I know I'm going to pushing it activity wise I use compression garments, company called skin makes the ones I like. And a recovery paste made by climbon (It amazing but not the cheapest).

     

    Like you i dont want to give up what I enjoy for age. 

  8. If the braking isn't an issue something else is affecting how the nozzle seats when the piston drops. 

    I'd look change the maxx units out for something else and also look to change the spring that pushes the hop unit back to the gearbox.

    It could be combination of things like the feed tube slightly lifting the hop away or spring not strong enough or long enough to reseat the hop chamber
