I started shaving the front of the shs, the groove where the nozzle sits is now in the middle. Went to put it into the gearbox and noticed that it just would not shut no matter what I did. I then realised that you have to take a massive chunk out of the bottom portion of each side of the tappet...

Wow that actually makes a lot of sense and ties on to my next new problem FFS :D ..... My gun will shoot on a 7.4 perfectly but won't shoot correctly on an 11.1 and I'm guessing that this is because the tappet plate is still not being held back for long enough even with the sector delay chip...

Thanks for the info man I really do appreciate it because I had no idea so much could affect the tappet plate timing. I shortened a new spring because I installed a fresh tappet spring after the last one that was also shortened became really weak which must mean that the last person who I gave...

The spring is definitely correct, I put my Lonex spring back in it's packaging the second I took it out when it was taken apart the first time.  I think the sounding healthier came from the motor height as the G&P grip is a tight fit for the motor so it gets wedged and I pushed it down...

Pre-mature engagement. When your piston can't reset in time for the sector to pick it up again so it scrapes against the piston rack early and wears both the sector and the piston down. The faster your gun shoots, the worse PME gets. Unless you up the power of the spring, lighten the piston etc.

I dont think it is alignment as I haven't changed any of the pats like the hop up but could of put it back together with something a bit off so after checking that, it doesn't seem to be alignment.  I fitted a sector delay chip and even on a 7.4v, the gun shoots about 30 feet and then plummets...

Seems like my fps has taken a nose dive meaning that there is a tappet plate timing issue but I did shave off from the pickup side. Is it possible that my sector gear shimming is too high and the tappet plate is rubbing against it? I don't have a sector delay chip on my sector gear so maybe I...

It's altogether and actually sounds healthier than it did with the m90 which is weird. The shimming hasn't changed at all or the motor height but it just sounds healthier. Strange.... Thanks for the help man. I won't be able to test the fps until the end of this month which is kind of a bummer...

I cut 2 teeth as you said but on my last build i had around 340 with the 3 teeth cut on 13:1 gears and the same spring i am going to use so if i am going to use the same setup but with 16:1 gears, would that equate to the same fps or does using 16:1 gears change the fps when it comes to short...

Thanks for the help Duck, I'm going to look up some tutorials on the safest way to not f*ck my sh*t up short stroking. I kinda knew that I would have to do this beforehand anyway but didn't really want to believe it. I don't have any 18:1 gears by SHS lying around so I guess I just can't f*ck...

True but I don't want to do it if I don't have to. I want to work out if I simply have to first before going through with it. I'm thinking that the lightened piston changes things slightly.

So just finished a new build as old one was even more stressful and died after use so new specs are: Lonex Gearbox - 8mm Bearings SHS 16:1 gears Lonex bearing spring guide SHS lightened 14 tooth piston with AOE corrected Lonex POM piston head Lonex cylinder Lonex cylinder head Lonex...

Go for the ferro concepts slingster if you got the cash, very very nice sling and has a fast tensioner on it so you can pull the slack out of the sling when you need to do something like climb up a ladder and then loosen it off when you need to pew again. 

+1 for the Lonex hop up unit....looks just the same as any other hop up unit but the adjustment wheel is nice and tight and the feed lips are a little longer than the G&P which means my PTS EPM mags feed every bb compared to when I was using the G&P hop up unit.

The prommy will outperform the zci technically but there most likely will not be much in it. The ZCI barrel's aren't that bad at all although I believe the Lonex barrel maybe slightly better for a similar-ish cost but don't quote me on that.  If you are a performance enthusiast then go prommy...

Does anyone feel faster and able to move around easier with the weight on your hips as opposed to your torso for the plate carrier? Are things like laying prone easier because there is less or nothing on your front?

So I run both a plate carrier and I run a belt and I'm thinking of moving some of my mag pouches onto my belt system but I wondered what the downsides are to loading up your belt compared to your plate carrier? I run 3 double stack WAS fast mag pouches, the ones that are similar to the Taco's...

Yeah make sure you don't pick up the 6.23mm barrel from orga on an aeg. Holy f*ck that means a full cylinder and beefy spring most likely and then making sure all the other parts in the GB hold up against the stronger spring and if your bucking is strong enough and just.......yeah, don't go...

It keeps flickering constantly brighter and dimmer and on and off when activated. Moving the selector around and even pushing down on it seems to affect the flicker but no matter if it is the laser or light, it keeps doing it and it is very annoying. Anyone know any fixes?
