CA LWRC and LiPo question / consideration

Postby Geschutz » Sun Dec 26, 2010 11:23 am

So I have a CA LWRC PSD replica and absolutely love it. I bought some star Pmags that do not fit into my CA M15's magwell but fit fine in the LWRC. I currently use a 11.1 LiPo and it works well...

I am considering getting a second CA LWRC and downgrading it for CQC use.. I would think with less stress with a lighter spring, using an 11.1 lipo would be too hard on the gearbox. Does that sound correct or should I get a 7.4 stick for it???

Thoughts? Oh and please only post if you know what you are talking about..

I have the same setup (except primary is M6A2 version) and I am running a 10.4v (not Li-Po) in my PSD. Still a great ROF for what I want and no worries on my internals.
On the technical side, less resistance on the spring will result in faster rotation of gears and therefore the piston. The last thing you want to happen is out cycle the piston that you end up stripping a tooth on the piston, or worse yet, on a gear. That 11.1 has a pretty good ROF on a 120 spring, imagine what it'll have on a 90-100.
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon

I had a m15 that had an m90. I was using a 9.6 large battery in it and did 30rps. there was a little overspin.
