Nosler Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi all , just got a Hera arms CQR and I am wondering about running a 11.1 lipo instead of a 7.4. Is it good to go out the box or do I need to change spring ?? Cheers in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BibbsOnTour Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 If it's anything like my Avalon, it wont be the spring that'll be an issue when running a higher volt battery. It will put more strain on the gears though so they will wear out quicker. The only thing that'll improve when running a 11.1 over a 7.4 is trigger response and rate of fire, I believe, so it really just depends if you can justify the need for that being greater than the prolonged life of gears etc.!

Many thanks for that , i was looking for a higher ROF and better trigger response but at the cost of wearing parts out sooner ........... Don’t know if it’s worth it . cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
