Firing in semi wouldn't change anything really. If you wanted to really release spring tension, open the gearbox and use a screwdriver to poke the anti-reversal latch.
Before the AKs acquired mosfets, I used to do that with a small Allen key poked up the motor hole.

I didn't mean disabling the precocking but releasing the tension applied with precocking - or decocking if that's a better term.
In the video, he has a caption stating "To prevent the spring getting weaker from too much tension, release the precocking after the game, by shortly shooting the Replica on Full-auto."
As an aside, i'd like to see a comparison in length in the short config vs the CQB/Para style AUGs.
Isn't that what we usually do after a day's play with non-mosfet guns?

Okay. as you can see from my gun and the upgrades (im new to upgrading) will this barrel give me a good upgrade from my current barrel? and what mm should I use? (i have an airsoft tech that lives near me so she will assemble it for me)
Also what would be the best nub and bucking set from the maple leaf range?
Either of the barrels would be an upgrade; the 6.02 is probably the best option.
The yellow Macaron or MR Hop with AK2M4's red nub would be good options: https://www.ak2m4.co.uk/internal-parts/hop-up-buckings-nubs -

The way you have to release pre-cocking is a bit of a hassle if i'm understanding it correctly. If you're in a CQB field, you'll have the full auto disabled so you'd have to re-enable it, fire then disable auto again. The setup is restricted due to the trigger and lack of selector but they've likely got it set up the best way they could.
I'm hoping this announcement will spur a few people into listing their AUGs for sale and I can pick an upgraded one up on the cheap.From the flow chart, I cannot see a need to enter full auto to disable pre-cocking. However, it is not as simple as a Perun Hybrid or AB++, being typical of cheap Chinese mosfets. You have to reset the pre-cocking the next time you want to use the gun.
I have the same hope, as I want to do a FIDF loadout. -

I'v got the revision sawfly's do you think i should have that much of a problem with them ?
Sawflys are not pretreated; their anti-fog cloths work well, as do Cat Crap and Absolutely Clear. My eldest uses the latter for diving.

I have an Specna Arms 2.0 SA-h22 https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/specna-arms-sa-h22-edge-2-0-tm-carbine-aeg
Currently using the m90 spring as I went to a cqb place and i am now looking for slightly more fps, more accuracy and range.
Would this be a beneficial upgrade from the stock gun?
M100 spring for desired fps (already got a m100 i think)
ZCI stainless steel barrel
4UANTUM FRICTION PRO bucking and nub set
I would ditch the ZCI barrel and go for an XT one from @ak2m4; they are much better quality.
I don't know much about the Friction Pro, so I am not sure how it compares with the Maple Leaf range.

With an m120 spring it’s 310fps 1.01 joules. So way under the performance of that spring, everything is stock other than the spring , the stock spring was a m100 and was only getting 240 fps
That is very poor; what is the length of the inner barrel? Do you have a photo of the cylinder showing the window?

when I cover all holes ( bb receiver + end of the barrel) and I blow through the other end there is a slight ( very slight ) leak of air going somewhere. Is this normal ??
If there is a very slight leak, that is probably normal as the sealing of the ends may not be perfect.
With the gun assembled and the nozzle fully forward, shine a light up the BB feed tube and look down the barrel; if you can see a ring of light, the nozzle is not sealing in the hop lips.

How would one modify it I have the old bolt catch ?
You need to remove the parts that go through the receiver.
-
I am not quite sure what you are asking with regard to the bolt catch; however, you cannot use a functional bolt catch with the Eon. You can either remove the lever from the current one or, if you do not still have it, get a replacement and modify it.

Achieving that with the m120 spring. Losing a lot of power somewhere.
yeah the 5 mid caps issue is with the new m120 spring and brand new batteries. The gun was fine( battery wise) prior to changing the spring, reckon it’s due to the voltage being a tad low ?
Not necessarily the voltage; maybe a higher capacity battery with a higher discharge rating.

A video would be useful so that we can listen to the screech.

That would be a good starting point.

Most likely! Putting an aster into a Cyma V3 was as smooth as butter, same as the Specna V3 & Double Bell. Very odd
The lad has an Aster in his LCT Val; no issues.

1 hour ago, Madhouse said:I've a Bifrost, from a tracer perspective you're looking at red or green BBs. It's the muzzle flash that's RGB etc and it illuminates any BB's / gasses as they leave the barrel but your BB will be either red or green.
What a tracer is doing is subjecting your BB to UV light to activate the elements in the BB that make it glow, the colour is down to the BB itself. It's doing this as it the BB passes through the unit.
You've then got the LED's at the front of your unit, which is the muzzle flash. This is independent of the tracer and is just a bit of fun really and is where you can choose colours etc.
I love Bifrosts; they make it so much easier to identify targets.

As a side comment, if you are having to use an M120 spring to get a decent power output, there is a serious compression/air seal issue.
2 minutes ago, Sjkendall said:i currently dont,
thanks for your input, that is my suspicion that due to the spring upgrade my motor requires a tad more juice then the 7.4s provide after a bit of use. fully charged i got maybe 5 mid caps out of it before this happens.What capacity is the 7.4 (mAh)?

Not really, just made sure everything meets where it should etc same way it came out.
Hmm, I asked because I was wondering if the fin of the tappet plate could be slightly tight between the sector gear and the gearbox casing/bushing, causing it to be slow in moving forward; this could result in it being pulled back before it had time to move fully forward.
-
Did you reshim the gearbox?

Cut off lever is installed, so it can't be a magnet, or at least said "magnet" isn't used to detect the sector gear's position, there would be two redundant systems that at one point would conflict resulting in silly things happening.
That, my friend, is just the tappet plate cam, you can see it on the shs sector as well, although much smaller.
Afaik there is only one system that uses magnets to track the sector gear and it's the Ares EFCS (electronic fucky cunty shit) and that would be a whole new can of worms, so yeah you're good to go, swap them gears and have fun
Correct; the terrible CYMA mosfet does not use cycle detection.

The phrase is first recorded in the 14th Century, been around a bit.
The earliest use of it that I am aware of is from The Scourge of Corruption. Or a crafty Knaue needs no Broker. Printed for Henry Gosson and William Houlmes, 1615). However, that does not relate to juries.
The earliest use of it relating to a jury that I am aware of is from The Muses looking-glasse. Printed by Leonard Lichfield for Francis Bowman, 1638), by the poet and playwright Thomas Randolph (1605-1635).
If you have an earlier source, I would be fascinated to see it.

Ok. So first up, bugger.
Tooth missing from the sector gear. I'd short stroked the pick up but it looks like it short stroked the last tooth on the release side all on its own...??
It seems that you need to restart the build.

The compression on VFCs out of the box is usually awful, which could be a major part of the problem.
