People will recommend it, but i ran a clone aep mp7 on an 8.4v mini for thousands of rounds with no trouble, was still going strong when i sold it!

Wouldn't put a bet on it. I ran an 8.4v on a TM MP7 and it stripped and shredded the gearbox in less than 3 hours.

Re: mp7a1 mods, need advice
my MP7 that's had a cracked gearbox for a while now has been running fine on an 8.4... I tested it with a 10.8 once, but I wouldn't risk running it on it...
I'd say it comes down to how you play, if you're planning on hosing people and putting thousands of rounds through it then it'll wear out quicker, if like me you are just after a quicker trigger response and you're sensible about the amount of rounds you put down range then it should be fine

Re: mp7a1 mods, need advice
im running a 7.4 lipo on mine, had it custom modified to fit, obviously isnt the best way to do it, as you cant remove the battery
, so when the battery goes down, so does your gun, until you charge it :P

Re: mp7a1 mods, need advice
ive had varying experiences. my first one broke the gearbox casing when i upgraded it which resulted in my dad building a new gearbox from aluminium. i have somehow magically put together a second one with stock parts in buying bits to repair the first one, that runs with an 8.4v battery just fine, also has a few other upgraded bits.
but yeah, its hit and miss. im hoping my dads custom gearbox will be able to hit 300-330 fps
