ASCU gen 3 advice

roadrunner16

I was looking to install a gen 3 ASCU in a g&g scar.



the main reasons were for the increase in trigger response with the pre cocking . the setup would be pretty vanilla with running a g&p120 and stock g&g gears and a turnigy 7.4 lipo and deans.

was reading before that ASCUs dont like high speed motors and prefer hi torque motors, and was also

any advice or help would be greatly appreciated, havent really gt my heart set on an ASCU so any alternatives would be greatly appreciated.

Merf 3.2 is supposed to be really good, it has rof control, burst fire, even what battery you want to run to maximise performance, im planning on getting one for my next project

All mosfets of that type prefer hi torque motors.

If you do go ahead and are sticking with the hi speed motor then leave your ARL in place. With hitorque you can remove it on most applications.

yeah was reading that aswell, what im mainly looking for is a snappy trigger response and only a small bump in rof , so I was thinking about leaving the m120 in but from what some people are saying else where is that a hi torque will be just as snappy and I can leave out the arl. ? will replacing the m120 with a high torque such as a guarder hi torque cause a drop in rof ? and are there any other alternatives to a decent / well priced high torque ?

sorry for all the questions and thanks for all the help !!

If you're going for a snappy trigger response, I'd recommend a high torque motor, also they create little to no overspin in semi and full auto, so once you release the trigger, it will fully stop firing, especially with an advanced mosfet...
No Rooky would know a hell of a lot more about this than me, but I believe a high torque motor may drop the rof slightly, but to be honest it probably won't be too noticeable!
I'd suggest an SHS High torque motor, took Rooky's advice and bought one :P
They're great pieces of kit for the price too!

I know a bit but we are all learning all the time:-)

The hi torque motors spin up to full speed virtually instantly whereas hi speed motors actually take time to get there. So a hi torque will be much snappier but usually a couple of bbs a second slower.

You can't go wrong with the SHS hi torque motors. Great performance for little money.
You can always use a slightly more powerful battery to boost your ROF.

thanks very much for the advice

so a revised set up of shs hi torque, stock g&g gears , 7.4 lipo maybe an 11.1 and a gen 3 ascu is what im now thinking.

I recommend Spectre mosfet from http://www.btcairsoft.com/spectre_v2gb because of much better quality of used materials. Also Lonex A2 is good choice for motor.

Rooky1

Have to agree with Mafo, the Spectre is a far superior unit if you can find one.
The lonex is a fantastic motor with speed and torque but is a bit dearer.

11.1 is fine with the hi torque and MOSFET.

someone actually recommenced this to me but couldn't find one in stock anywhere. is the lonex much better than the shs ? ideally trying to keep the cost of the build down. but I'd rather a motor that'l last over a cheaper one that'l fall apart !! :P

Rooky1

The lonex motors are very nice and work really well.
The SHS one is extremely cost effective and easily available. It will not fall apart.
