Trigger arcing?

Greetings again gents,

Just throwing up a brainstorm/idea as to something I've noticed with 2 of my guns and just looking for some input from some outside sources. I've noticed that my one m4 would not shoot on semi (and would shoot full-auto) unless I pulled the trigger pretty hard and let it release fully and repeated the process for it. With my newer m4, it didn't do that until I ran it on an 11.1 lipo for a bit, and I've slowly noticed the same trigger problem accumulating, but not to the same extent since the trigger on the newer m4 requires a lot less pull. So I guess the question I am throwing out there, does anybody know of trigger contacts arcing because of higher strain lipos causing this kind of behavior?

If this is the case I am not going to be looking at replacing contacts but rather a mosfet that is going to completely bypass the problems with the semi auto shooting all funky as is. If nobody has had an relation to anything similar to this I'd just look at replacing the contacts as they go and just sort of deal with it.

Thanks for your time!
