    So my mate has a GFC 416 and while we were skirmishing the other day sometimes his aeg would just stop shooting altogether, then a minute or 2 later it would start shooting again ?
    This used to happen to my old m4 and when someone fixed it for me they adjusted the motor height so I was thinking the same for his aeg.
    Anyone have any other solutions to fix this ?

    Cheers :)

    Sounds like a loose connection tbh mate, might be the motor connectors, they've a tendency to work loose.

    Some things that even a monkey with an IQ of -145 (ie, me) could check first of all.

    Remove the motor plate and check the two connectors, see if the tabs are broken.

    Check the tamiya plug(if it's one of those) to see if the pins are coming out.

    Check the fuse and MOSFET (different GFC models have different ones) and the connectors.

    If its one of those, it'll be an easy job to do - either way, I'd say bring it to your favourite gun tech to fixbash into working order with a mallet.
