Some of those are quite big and heavy, depending on your size and strength you might not want to get too hung up on full metal models for your first gun. In reality light is probably best in airsoft as a "sport", our CA Sportline MP5 is great when running around and trying to scramble up a...

Dont go to Bunker 51 for your first go at airsoft, if I had I would not be playing now. Find a local outdoor site where you can hire your kit and have a walk and talk with the other players, most will be more than pleased to discuss what to get. Bunker 51 is a bit full on and busy. I dont know...

If you have lipos with more than one cell they should be supplied with the main cable and another small plug connected with thinner cables. This plug, when connected to the charger, allows each cell to be charged independent of the others and allows the charger to "Balance" each cell to the same...

You should store at 7.4 volts which sounds strange but a fully charged 2 cell lipo will be at 8.4 volt..you are partly correct in 3.7 volt per cell, you have 2 cells hence 7.4 volt. easy way to do things is to charge the lipo with a charger to 8.4 volts a day or so before you play. When you...

A couple of lads we play with have bought G+G in the last 6 months, and to be honest I've not been too impressed. Both have suffered from screws coming loose, and I know this can happen on any make, but they both have dropped off power wise by a fair amount and range is what I would call poor...

A group of us go to Dropzone, good mix of people, well organised and marshals are good. Very friendly and most helpful for beginners. They have a good site, about 25 acres with some old buildings, forest, scrub and trenches. Best site we have been to and you can do a half day for £15 if you dont...

It's more a case of not storing fully charged which is normally 4.2V per cell. 3.7V is a safe value as below this they drop quickly and can become damaged.

Just one thing to note for long life with Lipo, apart from not letting them drop too low, is to only charge them when you are going to use them, leaving them charged to max (4.2v per cell) when storing will lead to them puffing up. Easy thing is to charge the day or night before you need them...

Need a little advice on our ICS Sig 552 MRS, new gun used a couple of times. Firstly FPS seems a little low at about 250, but has decent range so not too bothered by this. What I do find strange is that the piston only returns to fully extended every other time it is fired on semi auto. I always...

My son drives RC cars. Do get a decent charger, Imax B6 is great, we have one and can be run off batteries at site if need be, it will prevent over charging and can also balance cells, we got one off Ebay for less than £25. We charge via the main battery output wires, the smaller plug is to...

I take 4/5 13 year olds along on a regular basis. They get a bit feed up with being given orders by older teens and young adults who have no better ideas but manage to shout louder. What I will say is that they will work as a team if they are treated like members of the team. As with all team...
