  • one bitch of a gearbox

    heya guys if the gearbox is making an ugly whiny sound every time it fires does it mean theres too much shimming? it also seems to only work when the buttplate for the PISTOL GRIP is unscrewed slightly

    whats goooing ooon??

    That is your motor alignment. If you have to unscrew the grip slightly, then the motor is pushed too far in. Tighten the handle again and you should see a small allen key hole on the bottom of it. Loosen the grub screw and check how it sounds as you go. Stop when it is quietest.

        make sure your motor "bounces" up and down freely on its spring, if it doesnt make it so number 1.

            depends on where its getting stuck i guess. Some grips ive had to sand them a little but usually its a matter of routing the wirers properly

              Sounds either your grip is out of line, or you have shimmed the bevel too close.

                the bevel? any reason why it would just be the bevel gear? and yeah maybe sanding the grip will help definitely seems a problem area
