Allen428 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I’m looking at getting a TM 416 delta and at the moment I don’t really want to modify it apart from a Lipo mod. My only concern is semi lock up, any one run standard TM416 with out mosfets do you get many lock ups? Or is it just a lot of scaremongering due to excessive trigger spamming? I have already got a 416 devgru but it’s had a BTC Spectre fitted from new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted October 27, 2018 Supporters Share Posted October 27, 2018 In a word ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,NO me personally I think your spot on with the scaremongering point , again me personally I think it’s just the BTC fan boys trying to legitimise spending silly money on something you don’t ‘need’ to run your gun . I’ve got a 9-10yr old socom that’s been running on 7.4v Lipo (now 9.9v LiFe) totally stock Barr a spring change and guess what ? It’s STILL running fine ! Who’da thunk ! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Prisce Posted October 27, 2018 Supporters Share Posted October 27, 2018 No you do not need a mosfet unless your running 11.1V. I run my TM recoils on 7.4V without mosfets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen428 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Thanks for your replies, think I will keep it stock apart from a Lipo mod and will be running 7.4v batteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiosity which type of mod you going for ? With all my Armalite platforms I get rid of absolutely everything to do with the original power supply and solder my deans straight to the two wires sticking out of the stock tube so I can run any stock I want on it . 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I i did it myself on my devgru I bought some better contact bars and used a deans connecter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Depends on the features of the mosfet. I'd opt for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enuff , I like going ‘the whole hog’ so I can use different stocks , horses for courses in the end ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skara Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Apart from saving trigger contacts when using 11.1s or having a programmable burst, no.. Although having your piston stop in the same spot every single time is a nice feature that prolongs the mechbox life.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
