You can run an 11.1v on a tacklemod motor, but not a stock motor. Learned that one the hard way lol
15c is the bare minimum required for PTWs, I run a 25C and there's a noticeable increase in ROF. But 15C is safer on your electronics. Don't know whether the difference in power is due to 15C being so close to the amp draw, or if it's just the difference in internal resistance on the packs.
That being said, stick to NiCd or NiMH. Not 100% on the proper voltage for spring, but many others can chime in on that! It's the safer option for your boards.
barrel length really doesn't make a big difference. I've never run anything longer than 430, even in my sniper rifle.
The motor will quit on you at some point for sure. You can ask Macguyver or DTT for help on that one
The PTW is a solid platform overall. IMO they don't really keep up with current airsoft technology (hopup, solving their motor problems, 100% LiPo friendly boards). But they did such a good job designing it in the first place, there's not much to improve on mechanically.
Don't over tighten the hopup when you first get it, that's a classic mistake.
make sure to unplug your batteries after every use
If you do break the hop adjuster, buy a systema one, as per Mac they are better than the deepfire ones. And if you're not mechanically inclined, I agree with him.
Always better to buy a complete platform. PTW upgrades, like in AEG's, can be messy. Best leave them to people who know what they're doing!
And vanaras mags are way cheaper and in some ways better than systema mags.
Aaaaaand que macguyver:
