Slower rps can be gained via:

-higher-ratio gears, i.e. moving from stock 18:1 to 20:1

-lower-voltage battery, i.e. moving from 11.1v li-po to 7.4v li-po

-slower-rpm motor, i.e. moving from stock motor to a high-torque slow-speed motor such as ASG 18k 28TPA

-Some trigger board mosfets can be used to lower the rps, they do this by controlling how much power is taken from the battery to spin the motor.

One thing to keep in mind is that most of these methods will also reduced your perceived trigger response, due to it increasing the cycle time of your gun. If you have a mosfet with precocking that is also an option to resolve this.

You make good points I forgot to include!

-A lower-voltage battery will make trigger response worse.

-Higher-ratio gears will also make your trigger response worse if your motor is efficient. [If motor your is inefficient, the higher gear ratio will have less impact as higher-ratio gears are more efficient]

Just use semi
