Horsem4n Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 So redwolf just put up the Virgo brushless AR kit for around what VFC said they'd sell them for, so I wanted to post it. http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Conversion_Kits_AEG_VFC_Virgo_M4_Conversion_Kit_Deluxe_Brushless_Motor_Version.htm?utm_source=iContact&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=redwolf-airsoft-specialist-ltd&utm_content=Retail+EDM+July+13th+2018 I haven't looked anywhere else, but I may try to pick one of these up eventually. Or maybe I'll convince a friend of mine to grab one. If anyone sees the full models or sees them cheaper elsewhere, post it up. Hopefully brushless motors live up to the hype and proliferate the market. That way we can return to trusting active breaking without having to change brushes every couple of scrimmages. No overcycle issues, no need for a mosfet, the motor is just controllable and protected out of the box. Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Brushless motor, but still using a mini tamiya plug. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- Link to post Share on other sites
Katotaka Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 it will survive if the wattage of the system is not that high, but please just switch to XT30 already Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 I have a bag full of clone deans connectors. Like 200 pairs, and a soldering iron. So it doesn't really matter to me. If anyone wants a pair just hmu Link to post Share on other sites
1st Commando Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Having tried one I was shocked to see just how urgent they turn over . They sound like a GBB shot , it was almost enough to get me interested in battery powered things again Link to post Share on other sites

They sound like a GBB shot , it was almost enough to get me interested in battery powered things again I can build 60rps DSGs with unbrushed motors which have a trigger response in the ~18ms range. Even a fairly basic SSG build with a 16tpa neo motor and 14:1 gears with short stroking can get into the 30ms. The major benefit of the brushless motors would be the power efficiency and better torque at higher speeds, plus a less power-hungry method for adjusting RoF than PWM in computerised mosfets.

1st Commando Posted July 20, 2018 Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 Very true it was just the one thing that was instantly noticeable out of the box without changing anything Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted July 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 I think the best part of a brushless motor is the lack of dealing with brush dust. Just never having to change brushes and cleaning carbon out of the grip and motor is attractive to me. Link to post Share on other sites
