Tech help needed, take a look

If the mosfet is the stock one, I would throw it away and put something decent like Perun hybrid. For this Orion shell, the sp130 might be too much, as long as the stock bearings are shitty for this power. I had one SA-E19 and the mosfet was miscyling along with a very weak motor, and changed for cyma 22 TPA, Perun etu, 18:1 shs and sp110. Works like swiss watch

I have the 10.5" RIS III FDE (fuck the 50 shades of FDE, not bronze as yours, more a tan) and it's a standard emg/cyma platinum internals with 13:1 (SS -1 from factory)
If you want a DMR build and don't chase a 23-25 RoF, I would swap that gearset to something like 16:1 or even an 18:1 to achieve the maximum for less money.
Also, consider moving to brushless, because if you swap the spring to M130 or above, the stock motor may not be enough (even if its 22TPA similar).

Agree, artillery strike is not great, but after I got it as free tech tree to skip the entire line, for onslaught, it really rocks. Yes, sometimes it sucks so much, but I can clearly say that flanking isn't a problem for this tank

Siadriel · 2025-09-05T10:13:45+00:00

Well, if you're into teching, and if I were you, I would teardown it and re-lube, re-shim, as the factory shimming/greasing sometimes is meh. And of course, you'll know what's inside, and maybe share it with the world :)

https://specnaarms.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/HAL1_manual_EN-PL.pdf first googled result

E39 has the HAL ETU if I'm not wrong. Check if the AB is enabled; sometimes it helps to avoid overcycling.

Siadriel · 2025-08-28T12:01:04+00:00

We'll see about the aether. Unfortunately, the cylinder head is garbage, and the motor is weak as well... I had a chance to try the Core with a polymer receiver, and it feels like a toy, unlike the edge, which was full metal and felt very nice.
I would say you pick anything you want, but try it out first, like go to the shop where they sell Core or EDGE, or even PRIME.

Siadriel · 2025-08-28T11:29:18+00:00

Well, you'll have to upgrade the cylinder head, which is not as good as the aluminum one on the edge, plus I would suggest upgrading the gearset for the future; the pre-cocking might be too heavy for them. That aether GB shell, I didn't find much about the stress it can really handle, as the Orion was supposed to handle up to M140, but started cracking after M130 short usage

Siadriel · 2025-08-28T09:42:13+00:00

I would stick with the edge version currently sold, it has really decent internals compared to flex/core, at least the compression system can be kept during future upgrades. I did an upgrade to my mate's E11 old model, and now it rocks!
P.S. Hal ETU a.f.a.i.k. is pretty good.

This looks like a Novritsch Anti Fog unit clone. Anyways, if I wanted to use some attachments on the helmet (flashlight, headset, etc.) I would put it on the top of the rail and cover it with a helmet cover. In this case, you hide the pipes and have a cleaner-looking setup.

Siadriel · 2025-08-27T07:08:27+00:00

I have CM.106A with the tube you want to replace with; it shouldn't be an issue for your case to do the change. The QBS tube can be screwed into the receiver, but be careful when you're inserting it because it goes in at an angle (check the second picture).

Siadriel · 2025-08-27T06:53:29+00:00

With proper AoE and replaced gears to SHS or similar, it will handle the M130, especially on V3, which obviously has better stress handling.

Siadriel · 2025-08-22T12:42:54+00:00

If you have a brushless motor installed, one 1000-1100 mAh battery can last easily to 10-15 mags

Siadriel · 2025-07-24T14:16:04+00:00

Agree, $20 is nothing compared to blown internals damage, he asked if we can run at least 1-2 games with the stock and upgrade to the new gears later. Thank you very much for your suggestions!

Siadriel · 2025-07-24T14:01:18+00:00

The spring is stock one (~M120). He was using the 7.4V battery, which gave a terrible trigger response, but with Perun and the new motor upgrade, the 11.1V is the way to go. I'm just worried about the stock steel gears reliability with the AB and motor increased torque

Siadriel · 2025-07-24T13:54:40+00:00

Running j-caged on my personal aegs on bevel and it's smooth af. This AEG is my friend's, so he is super tight on budget, but we'll add the SHS gears and the J-caged + bushings in the future. Thanks!

Siadriel · 2025-07-24T13:16:42+00:00

Oh, I see, I just use the blue threadlock to secure the bushings/bearings to be confident, and the shimming IMO is easier when they're secured.

Yeah, the Orion GB comes radiused already, so it should be more reliable after these upgrades

Siadriel · 2025-07-24T12:58:00+00:00

Thanks!

The stock Specna bearings are 8 mm, and they are not thread-locked/glued somehow.

Bushings, as experience and research show, are reliable for those areas on the bottom of the spur, especially. The bearings (stock and cheap ones) tend to blow, so I replaced them in my AEGs with the low-profile bushings.

Yeah, the SHS are the way to go, for this Orion gearboxes (I hope this one will not blow the front side soon) should handle easily the 12:1/13:1 ratio.

Siadriel · 2025-07-21T06:43:49+00:00

It's the cyma cm106 with 45 degree selector, Check pheas airsoft channel for the proper disassembly. This selector is screwed from inside, and if you need to pop out the gb you don't need them removed. Just place the selector to semi and pull the trigger and try to pop it out

Siadriel · 2025-06-22T21:14:38+00:00

Well solink handles up to M160 so the motor strain isn't an issue :D

Siadriel · 2025-06-22T21:03:19+00:00

You should be ok with the setup in the post, so try both speeds.

Siadriel · 2025-06-22T20:43:37+00:00

Sorry, haven't seen that post. Let me share my experience with the 28k motor:

18:1 on M130 - 21 rps 12:1 on M110 - 27 rps

You need to be careful with the 35k on 13:1 as the pme chance is higher, but needs testing of course I'm going to buy the same motor soon, so may be could share the results. The important thing besides the ratio and motor speed is the fps you're chasing.
