Richard Y Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Nice! I just heard back from echigoya... supposedly, they are having issues with California customs not letting shipments of the m870 in. Annoying. I may just leave it as it is with the 1200 mah battery. Fitting it over on one side means my cheek is welded over onto the side where the connectors are housed....away from the cells...just in case. I will look into it though. Thanks for your input richard Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk That's a good point from mrezzy.. If your going the btc route ... You would need a lot less battery. I would love to know if there's anyone that's not going to be fitting a spectre hehe. Assuming they at some point are in ready supply. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sacairsoftsn00py Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 No BTC Spectre in mine...yet. Guarder Infinity Torque Motor. Thats what im running. Makes a big difference Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 hk416 and m4 triggers side by side, granted the m4 is a little worn though.. prob not best comparison. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aod Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 I think i went OTT with new purchases, who wants to touch them.. http://i889.photobucket.com/albums/ac98/Richyyoung/newguns1_zpsa3e673c9.jpg I volunteer as tribute! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sacairsoftsn00py Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Same setup as before with the exception of a chopped Systema m120 spring. Rof was at about 12.3 on a fully charged 7.4v 1200mah 25C lipo. Trigger response slowed down some, but is still fairly snappy considering that I am now shooting 396-401 fps with .20g bbs.

Hopewell Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) Very nice there! Sounds similar to mine, relatively stock with 7.4v 3000mAh 15C Edit: http://youtu.be/kmUvTH1RXoY I really should replace the motor with something with more torque!

point_7 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Im running a systema magnum in my 416d , on a 7.4 1200 25 c battery with 345 fps on 0.20 , and it runs like a beast abd it has very good trigger respons Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hopewell Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 340fps from mine, I probably should have said.. once I get my hands on a spectre I will probably AoE it with sorbo. In the meantime I will probably get an SHS ultra high torque! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
point_7 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 here is a video om my tm hk416 , 345 fps, systema magnum, and a 7.4v 25 c 1100 mah battery Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hopewell Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Definitely more torque there without a stupid rof. I most certainly need a new motor! I may invest in an SHS ultra high torque.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thinking the same myself. You changed anything else point_7? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
point_7 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 the gun is all stock except the motor and spring. its the systema magnum motor ans just a prometheus m90 spring 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Very interesting, considering that's a stronger spring than normal that's some awesome response in semi-auto. Thanks for the info mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sacairsoftsn00py Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Got to field mine for about 10 mins. Started recording midway through. Same deal as before. 390+ fps with .20g bbs. 335+ fps with .28g bbs. 7.4v 1200mah 25c lipo.

mrezzy Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Field test for BTC spectre today at Hudson valley airsoft. I freakin love the spectre, performance was perfect. Not much to say about that, no more semi lockups. The lipo monitoring kicked in as expected when my 7.4v ran out of juice, the motor beeped a few times to let me know, very neat feature! I think my only complaints would be that the trigger is a tad but sensitive, sometimes when i fire semi too fast, it accidentally end up bumping the trigger. I wouldn't mind having a farther trigger pull. But thats just me. Very well worth the money as it takes your tM sopmod to ptw level with a simple replacement.

Richard Y Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Yup we all want them. Just need a large enough batch made. Most peeps want to lessen the trigger pull so sounds about right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hopewell Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Out of interest, does anyone know how many are out there? I can imagine that this first batch was to generate interest and to find faults with the hardware. I asked about release on ASM weeks ago, but got no reply sadly.. Re motors, I see that you have both the long and the short type in stock Richard, do you have a clue as to if/when you will be getting TM hop units back in for the M4 series? I was going to head to FS on Thursday to get a motor for my M60 as the pinion gear stripped, but to be honest, I would much rather line your pocket! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Y Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I think he said 60. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WillSK Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hey all, thanks to Richard and the TM Recoil appreciation society on FB i've found this group. Thinking of doing a project sometime in the near future and would love to hear what you guys have to add! I'm currently a recoil HK416 owner but I really wanna make a light weight civvi recoil build but my technical knowledge is limited so just wanted to see what people think about the following and how difficult it may be. Recoil Socom (i'm assuming this is the best choice due to front wiring but I hear the BTC is designed for rear wired guns so if you think this build is remotely possible with a different recoil it would be interesting to hear) NSR or Midwest industries SSK keymod rail (Will a real steel rail fit on a recoil?) BTC Spectre Next gen (when it's released) Battlelink minimalist stock (is it possible to get RS stocks on a recoil tube?) Hogue style grip (not sure where I might find one of these so any suggestions will be greatfully received) Maybe a body change if I can find one somewhere in the future so i don't have the colt markings (big maybe) aaand if i were to do any internal upgrades outside of the BTC spectre which would come most recommended or am i better off just leaving it stock (it would be nice to have a higher fps/performance but it's not mandatory) Thanks in advance guys!!

arne71 Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Leaving the gun stock is no bad thing at all. Then upgrade when things start falling apart. If you decide to upgrade, then do the lot. And preferably stick to parts from one manufacturer. Personally I went down the Prometheus route on my guns. Expensive? Oh yes, but well worth it with the performance you get. Internals: -Prommy gears, piston, piston head, cylinder, cylinder head and inner barrel. -Firefly hop up bucking and nub. -Eagle six spring. M100 spring along with the above upgrades will give you about 350 fps. -Eagle6 recoil spring. -Systema Magnum motor. Externals: -Laylax buffer tube lock ring. (This is mandatory) -Laylax hard barrel base is also recommended if you wan to avoid rail/barrel wobble. And please do not use the standard Sopmod batteries. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WillSK Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Any feedback regarding whether or not a real steel rail or stock will fit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Stocks definitely fit, I've tried the MOE and the CTR, no mod required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WillSK Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Stocks definitely fit, I've tried the MOE and the CTR, no mod required. Thank you kindly! I'm guessing the Socom is the best base to go for right? considering the existing front wiring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted April 18, 2014 Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 Pretty much say the same as I said on facebook. Stocks will be fine, the upper will need re-threading. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pdubyuh Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) hey there Will is that you? We need to get Sam on here! Is there any reason you want a real steel rail? the Madbull NSR we put on Sam's civi build seemed pretty nice while we were instaling it? for a hogue type Grip I'm sure Ben Webb just sourced a Ares one that was pretty similar maybe give him a shout of FB?
