input on a mosfet in a p90
I got a KA P90 lightly used last year, and of course it had the problem with getting stuck mid cycle on semi on anything less than 11.1v. I've researched that to the ends of the earth and know the cause. Full auto any battery (tested 11.1, 9.6 and 7.4) and it cycled with no problems, on semi with 11.1 it cycled relatively normally, anything less and it felt like the motor was struggling to turn and often get stuck mid cycle if I let go of the trigger too early. I figure this winter during the down time I'll show it some love and give it a mosfet. My question is specifically regarding how that would affect the cycling to trigger pull time. I know the addition of the mosfet would take the strain off the trigger contacts, but would it cause more complete cycling on the smaller voltage batteries with a quicker trigger pull? I'm not looking for a high ROF, field is semi only so I'm not pulling the trigger 15 times a second but still want response better than having to hold the trigger down the full cycle. Since I'm popping it open anyways I'll shim it and adjust the AOE to help with smooth operation, but if the motor itself was causing a high drain that smaller voltage batteries couldn't keep up then I'm not certain if it would still get stuck mid cycle even with the addition of a mosfet on <11.1v. I know the Titan mosfets have a "cycle detection" function but that's way out of my budget, I was looking at the gate units. Maybe the best would be add a mosfet and only run 11.1v? Hopefully that's clear enough. Thanks.
