Adammd209 Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Hi all, as the title suggests I'm looking to improve my vfc hk417's trigger response time. It's not really noticeable on full auto (obviously) but I'm wanting it to fit a DMR role. I was thinking of just using a 7.4 25c lipo but will this make a difference?
Supporters sp00n Posted December 1, 2013 Supporters Posted December 1, 2013 the short answer is yes it will also consider converting to deans connectors if you have not already
Adammd209 Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Yes I heard converting to deans helps as well. Cheers
Supporters M_P Posted December 1, 2013 Supporters Posted December 1, 2013 Yeah, switch to lipos, deans and fit a mosfet.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 1, 2013 Supporters Posted December 1, 2013 high torque motor will help too, if you're only firing on semi as well, you might as well use an 11.1v lipo.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 1, 2013 Supporters Posted December 1, 2013 Rewiring with 16AWG cable will also improve current delivery at least as much as switching to Deans. SHS 13:1 Gears will increase TR considerably, but at the cost of requiring more torque from the motor to pull the same spring. A high torque motor will sort that out. The standard way of increasing torque is to use thicker wire for the motor turnings, so it can draw more current, but in a limited space such as a predetermined motor size, fatter wire means less length and fewer turnings means less speed. Another way is to use better quality wire, purer copper, which has a lower resistance, which means that you get more current down the same number of turnings, hence no loss of speed, at the expense of... well, expense, cash. I can vouch for ICS Turbo 3000, but other people swear by G&P M120, Lonex A1, or Systema...
geoffreym Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Mosfet, either a ASCU V2 or the BTC Chimera mk2 or Spectre mk2. But a normal AB mosfet will also considerably improve trigger response.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 2, 2013 Supporters Posted December 2, 2013 if you're going down the MOSFET route, skip everything everyone has said and just buy a MOSFET that features pre-cocking. Near instant trigger response regardless of anything else. (cycle speed will still be affected by other things, upgraded wiring and deans connectors are still advised)
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 2, 2013 Supporters Posted December 2, 2013 Do you know of a good one, James? Linky? Cos that sounds like something I need on my L1A1 whenever I finally get her working...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 2, 2013 Supporters Posted December 2, 2013 BTC Chimera v2 is supposed to be the dogs danglies, I don't own any normal AEGs anymore though so I'm a bit out of touch with stuff that doesn't go into a TM recoil!

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 2, 2013 Supporters Posted December 2, 2013 V2 GB only too V^^V grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
geoffreym Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 V2 GB only too V^^V grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I thought the ARES SLR is a modified V2, mine looks a bit like those G&G V2+ with the extended pistons, they might fit, but you might consider asking them?
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 2, 2013 Supporters Posted December 2, 2013 TBH I didn't consider asking them But yeah, sounds like a plan.
