Running a stock AEG with a 11.1v Lipo
 

Hi,

G36 stock, with a 11.1 lipo, would it work or am I asking for gearbox trouble?

I would use a King Arm protection circuit board with it,

Thanks

Your asking for gearbox trouble :)

What does G36C brand? It completely depends on what is actually in your gun.

Ares G36, no internal mod, running at 400 fps with 0.2 (MG36 actually)

Your gun is fine on Lipo since it is already shooting 400 FPS you must have an m100+ spring to counterbalance it. The only issue with 11.1v is that it may not feed properly because the nozzle will overcycle too fast for the BBs to even go in the hop-up unit.

I have that problem with my CA G36K and another MG36 shooting 420FPS. Going down to 7.4v is better.

You should *probably* be ok. But 11.1v is alot of power. You could always test it out. Get ahold of a 11.1v lipo, shoot it in full auto, and if the sound really sounds stressed, don't do it. If it sounds perfectly fine, shoot it for a while, and then open up your gearbox and check it out. If anything breaks it will probably be your piston ($25 fix), so if stripping that is worth it to you, go for it.

I would, but be ready to replace piston,gears, piston head, cyclender head. I have done it, but remember that you will have to reshimm it.

My first question would be.....why?

Ditto.

Trigger Response

Get a Trigger Master, you will be able to lower your motor speed without loosing the trigger response

A higher MaH battery will give you better trigger response

Correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought the MaH rating is Capacity only. And Voltage is the one that improves trigger response.

Voltage moreso, but both increase it.

Only voltage increases trigger response. However, Voltage starts dropping as you drain the battery. A higher mah will keep the battery at max voltage longer.

Not true.

The type of cells will also do it. A 7-cell Sub-C pack will give you much higher trigger response than a 7-Cell 2/3A pack. Both are 8.4v, but one is much higher Ni-Cad (which tends to have a higher capacity for draining) as oppose to a 7-Cell Ni-Mh

That has to do with the batterys ability to discharge. Nothing to do with the capacity. The reason why you'd get a better trigger response with a sub c because it's able to supply the motor with the needed current flow wich the 2/3 cannot supply fast enough. This is a different variable that deviates from the origional statement of capacity controls trigger response wich it does not, voltage does. What your describing is discharge rate, a POSIBLE bottle neck. It's like saying deans ultra plugs controls trigger response. Again, as stated above, it was said that capacity and not current draw was responsible for trigger response wich is wrong. But current draw is determined by...you guessed it voltage.

Bigger NIMH batteries just supply more tiny amounts of amperage to your starved motor, with a 7.4v LiPo you'll be able to supply all the amperage your motor would need, at a lower voltage, saving your trigger contacts. Just don't overdischarge the cells
