Which is the best MOSFET?
I only know of 3 MOSFET systems, the ProArms 3 Burst MOSFET, WGC's CKW MOSFET Switch and Unconventional Airsoft's Trigger Master Mk II. Which one of these is the best one? Also, if there are better ones out there can you please post it up? Because I just got the CKW one today and it doesn't come with any connectors. So I'm going to have to get them separately. Did I make the right decision in purchasing my MOSFET system?

I'm partial to the UA Trigger Master, the fact that it can be programmed (features turned on and off) allows it to offer everything other MOSFETs have, making it a great value and extremely versatile.
I suppose it depends on what you want, too: if its just a FET switch with AB or something, then one of the cheaper ones will probably do. But for advanced features, burst fire, etc the Trigger Master is a great value (WTF is up wih the ProArms one? US$115..!) Plus DonP is one of our own, and has always been extremely helpful and answered my interminable questions, so I'm glad to support him. Even had some custom work done by him, which I'll eventually be installing in all my AEGs.

There's also http://www.awsairsoft.com - I'm waiting on a Pulse FPU-X40 unit to arrive in my mailbox.
Plus http://extreme-fire.com/ has their Panther platform. |

I'd of course point you to the Trigger Master and if you want a look at the features list and added info, you can download the manual here.
One thing that sets them apart is the large number of features and firing modes. Also, the fully programmable nature of the features (no fiddling with pots or anything. Everything is either automatically detected, or programmed through trigger pulls.) If you're curious about any particular part of the Trigger Master, just let me know. (PMs or email or posting in my retailer thread are best since I only notice discussion in forum topics if I happen to run across them (like this one) or someone points me to them.) |

By far, the Trigger Master has the most features built-in. So I might have to get me one for sure.
Just one question though, by looking at the installation setup, where on the switch assembly for a version 3 gearbox would the trigger master connect to and do I have to solder the wires? If so, I'm prefectly fine with that because I know how to solder pretty good. EDIT: Also, if the Trigger Master is the only thing that's connected to the motor, do I totally get rid of the original motor wires from the switch assembly?

NM, I get it... the 2 thin wires go where the 2 wires on the switch assembly are. So do I just joint solder the 2 thin wires from the Trigger Master onto the 2 wires on the switch assembly? What's that other connector type besides the motor connectors included with the Trigger Master? Am I supposed to use those to join the wires?

Does the Trigger-Master do full cycle completion in all firing modes?
One of the reasons I chose the unit I did was to solve the issue wherein the spring may remain partially compressed or a shot may not complete if the trigger is released too early. I didn't see anything specific in the Trigger-Master info that addresses that, or I missed it. |

DustMagnet, from what I'm seeing on the AWS site, their unit has a sort of external sensor which installs on top of the mechbox? Is that correct?

The previous revision had a slightly larger microswitch activated by the tappet plate itself. The previous revision also had the option of using a small microphone mounted near the hopup unit to "hear" the shot. Maybe that is what you saw? The details on the site seem to be halfway between the old revision and the discussions I have had with the developer as to how the new revision works... Another interesting approach I've seen is the use of a Hall Effect sensor mounted in the spring guide and a magnet attached to the piston head inside the piston. As the piston head approaches the spring guide the sensor value changes. This was used for a precocking project: http://forums.airsoftmechanics.com/i...p?topic=1465.0 |

Did you peruse http://unconventional-airsoft.com/gf...umentation.pdf ?
You desolder the existing connections on the switch, solder the two thinner wires to the switch and then the battery connects to one side of the unit and the motor to the other. It looks like the kit includes Deans connectors so you don't have to wire the unit directly to the motor. |

Airsoft Mosfet
Hello all, I really like the forum, I've been reading from here for a while and finally decided to sign up and start posting.
On this note: I wanted to mention one other company that offers good Mosfets, they are precisetactical.com. (I think you can get them on ebay also) Probably the most cost effective fets you can find, and they use only the highest quality internals. I have them in many guns, M4's, M16's, MP5SD6 and have fired 1000s of rounds with them weekend after weekend without issue. I run only 11.1 volt Li-Po's so they get tested to the max! :smile: I still dont see why all guns dont come with these! I know Systema's do, but those are $1000.00 guns, what gives. |
