Mmmm 2 hours to go and will Boris lock us down ???

So I was working yesterday, surveying a building.
This little guy showed up, my instrument has a built in laser pointer. (visible in the picture, right next to Mr. Cat)
Could've been a 1h job, it ended up being 2 hours
-
Oh no theres a wizard on the forum again...

Isn't it lovely when your gun shoots lasers until you hit the field, then shots go everywhere but where you aim.
Nonetheless it got me a couple of otherwise impossible hits

If anyone orders an InvaderGear UBACS, order a size UP. Extra Large my arse 😅

I fucking love when your gun is fucking spot on at home (even after fucking extensive testing), but then on the field it does whatever the fuck it wants.
Fuck off, really..
-
If your gun works at home perfectly
but screws up on site
make your own CQB site in your house
never have an issue with your gun again
might have buy a new TV, mirrors, lights etc...
but your gun will thank you for it

Having a bit of a kit clear out today. Keep your eye on the classifieds

Shall I buy it for the arp9?
Can't be worse than the Ares rail I currently have, right?

If the other gears are OK then just try replacing the sector only
& see how it rolls/spins/meshes perhaps
Std sectors are usually compatible - just if they mesh smoothly
If the bevel/spur are OK, shimmed OK & meshing nicely
eg: bevel to pinion, then just look to change sector
(or as little as possible)
Also some have said the std SA gears are not that robust
BUT I don't own one or a SA set myself
Yes AB is all well & good but heat can increase
on a ferrite motor, the motor continues to spin - a lot
Where as on a neodym motor, the strong magnets slow th
motor much quicker than a ferrite motor
On "the bench" the ferrite motor spins a lot longer
The neodym motor slows much much much quicker
In reality though the spring starting to compress slows them both
But I feel the neodym motor overspins slightly less in the box
So on a neodym motor AB is not needed perhaps
A clip showing AB on & the AB off with a neodym motor
YES with AB off the motor spins more
BUT no where as much as std ferrite motor does
This is a SHS High Speed so it is spinning faster
But doesn't carry on spinning like a std motor would
Now as said, ON THE BENCH
In a gun, in actual use, the spring would slow a weak ferrite easily
So it is debatable just how big the overspin difference really is
between neodym/ferrite motors in a working gun perhaps
But I feel neodym motors only need very very slight/light AB
to stop them and even without AB they still overspin less
AB imho should be used to accurately stop the cycle on pre-cock
or when trying prevent double firing when a gun is cycling too quickly
When people use AB to prevent double firing it can be a sign of sticking switch, worn COL or most commonly just taking the piss rof
If your gun does really need AB (for set pre-cocking)
then don't or at least try not use it, or only very soft AB
I don't use AB, so any motor heat is purely down to the build itself
(than reversing the polarity at the motor)
TLDR again - yeah turn off AB if you can

Just the spur/step/middle gear usually...
Bevel has 10 teeth still
(Usually)
Spur is very very slightly different with an extra tooth or something
18:1 is actually 18.65:1 or something
16:1 is actually 17.25:1 in most cases
Think a VFC 16:1 set/spur comes out at 16.5:1, but most 16:1's are 17:25:1
It is just the spur that is slightly different
You can use the 16:1 spur for a SR25 keeping the 19 tooth sector
or use a 16:1 spur in a DSG setup
Yeah people use the bevel in the set to ensure smooth compatibility, but essentially they are the same 10 tooth bevels in 12, 13, 16 & 18:1 sets
Well unless they contain the 9 or 8 tooth bevel type of thing - it's the same bevel, just spur alters in a 16:1 set.
16:1 Sector is same or compatible with 18:1 sectors
The rof doesn't alter much, coz the actual ratio doesn't change that much @ 17.25:1 instead of say 16.5:1 you was expecting.
TLDR
Yeah it is all compatible

Told you it was fucked (if 16rps on 11.1v)
Commutator badly worn with a deep dip in it, you'd struggle to recut
Brushes, barely anything left - maybe even on second set ???
Copper/carbon everywhere below motor in grip - ok you cleaned it up maybe
But that motor was very worn
Either commutator/brushes gave it up
Or
A winding burnt out
But by the 11.1v performance you was getting it sounded like it was on its last legs/windings

Mmmkay.
Bought a Guarder SP90 for the striker, it chronoes at 1.05J on a Guarder SP100.
One would say "good, it'll drop to 0.9something", right?
Nope. 0.6J...
Decided to nip a coil off the SP100, power goes up to almost 1.1J...
Another coil off, 1.08..
A third of the spring is now in pieces and finally the bloody thing is below 1J....
