Thanks! Yeah a full build with a custom mosfet and trigger can get far better, but for a stock gun it's not terrible. I havnt really played with any settings in the ETU yet.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft How do you find the trigger response to be? It's been a while since I played with it. Maybe the trigger is spammable if pulled in the right way.

@@banksblast3095 for cylinder head probably not an issue either way. For the piston and nozzle you need lighter viscosity. Grease likley is to heavy and may not function well. Oil is a medium weight and only a tad should be used. An alternative that may work (don't quote me) could be TechT Gun Sav. I've never used it for an AEG but it is a bit lighter weight of a silicone grease. Not sure if it would impeded the piston or nozzle function (if it's too thick).

@@BorelessAirsoft it took all the hits Hahaha. Don't think any damage was done. Truck is meant to get hit lol.

@@mikelondres3874 I'm not sure what you mean by hide the main body in the battery pouch but you can change the cable to any length you want.

Uh oh haha. That's not good!

@@LandonLinker-ql5vp awesome have fun! 😁 👌

I understand it to be compatible with AN F2 since it's a V2 gearbox but you'd need to consider the wiring due to split gearbox design (the ETU wires to the engine selenoids so may be tricky to open the gun) and also the nozzle length is not a standard M4 nozzle but I believe polarstar has options for ICS nozzle lengths. Mags are a bit annoying in that they are proprietary so ICS PDW9 mags are the best option. Honestly their PDW9 mags are quite nice. They also have a 9mm adaptor for the ICS drum mag. I've heard some people have succeeded getting other similar 9mm mags work but with modifications. The main issue is the mag catch system is different on the PDW9. I've only tried ARP9 mags and they don't work as is (I did not attempt any modifications).

​@@DucknDiveAirsoft Thanks for the quick reply! I'm gathering info because I just bought it without any research. Yeah, the mag compatibility is bad, and the ICS PDW9 mags are nice but quite expensive in Europe. Regarding the PolarStar nozzle compatibility, I found a few options on their website: 1. ICS MP5 A/SD length - 1.205 2. ICS SIG 550/551/552 length - 1.3435. Which one should I go for? I have a Maxx M4 hop-up unit lying around and I hoped I could use that with the PolarStar F2. Will it be compatible with the PolarStar ICS nozzle, or do I need a different PolarStar nozzle? Should I even change the hop-up unit, or is the stock one good enough?

@kamikadze_official id hit up polarstar either on their Facebook or email to confirm the nozzle variant. They should reply quick. I'd just leave it as the stock hop. In my opinion, the stock ICS hop is fine! Even with a short barrel I have no problem hopping 0.32g bbs 50m to 60m . I've had nothing but trouble trying to change hops on guns. It's hit or miss at best. If you did go Maxx there are specific ones marketed for ICS and then also ones specificly marketed for polarstar engines (I'm not sure if there is a polarstar + ICS version lol). I also don't really know what would be different between the various models of hops that Maxx has. I havnt dug deep into it so I'm not confident what would work best.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely reach out to Polarstar for confirmation on the nozzle variant. I'll stick with the stock ICS hop-up for now since it seems to be working well with. I agree, changing hop-ups can be hit or miss. If I decide to go for a Maxx hop-up, I'll make sure to do thorough research to find the right one for my setup. Appreciate the insights!

@kamikadze_official good luck!! 🤞

@@NoahBoner 😂🤠

@@DucknDiveAirsoft I need one so desperately lol.

@@NoahBoner never a better time then now 😂

@@DucknDiveAirsoft I'm working buying one! Now isn't the best time. The time Is now!

@NoahBoner 😂 yess! 🔫 💪 Gotta save slow for big dreams.

That's the plan

Enjoyed running with you sir

Thank you! We had a great time playing NATO with all!

Thank you! On it 🫡🫡🫡. They are coming.

Thanks man! ☺️

I'm not sure I understand what went wrong but I think you have it disassembled and the hammer is locked back keeping the rear saftey down too? If thats the issue then you should be able to gently put something like a small screwdriver up at the rear of the grip (parallel to it to) to reset the hammer forward just gently wiggle the screw driver around. The hammer spring and its housing should be out first of course. Be careful not to jam the sear spring as you don't want to bend the sear at all. Don't force it.

Lol I'm sure all things are possible but that would put less air to your eyes.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft Agreed. Great unboxing review!! 😁😁

Definitely not the same. HPA is high pressure atmosphere (air). Co2 is well Co2!

@@DucknDiveAirsoft tysm

@@DucknDiveAirsoft was that pistol a hpa?

I have a co2 and I’m looking everywhere online can u help me find good price for under $200?

Your looking for an HPA setup?

The outter barrel is aluminum and doesn't move so it shouldn't slow down the cycle. Is it catching or not fitting well?

@@DucknDiveAirsoft I got the airsoft masterpiece steel outer barrel and stock Mauri spring could it be to spring?

@@Greensofter if you have the stock slide I wouldn't use a stiffer spring because it can crack the stock TM slide. An aftermarket aluminum slide can handle a stronger spring which could potentially help it cycle better but it depends why it started not cycling well in the first place. The actusl outer barrel itself shouldn't effect your cycle unless it's not fit well.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft alright I will order a new recoil spring, what will be the best one. For short stroke

😂 Yes!

About 45 min North of Edmonton Alberta

@@DucknDiveAirsoft cheers

It was some random one a friend gave me honestly not sure what it came out of. Trial and error turns out to be a big part of tech work sometimes.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft ah gotcha, was wondering since a buddy sold me a vfc m27 body with no gb shell. so I wanted to know what you happened to use since i ordered an f2

It is a great field! 😁

I know right. There was more I could only fit this into 1 min 😂

@@DucknDiveAirsoft lol amazing

I'll be at the milsim outdoors at Rampage

I need more consistentcy in the HPA rifle first lol

@@DucknDiveAirsoft whats wrong with it?

@@BorelessAirsoft random fliers and inconsistent hop as mag empties. I believe it's midcap syndrome. I've tried more then than i can count to resolve it. I have a few other tricks I may try still just need time and a 3d printer.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft Mine did too with cast alluminum hop unit. Never again lol.

@@BorelessAirsoft the upgrade hops are often not an upgrade at all actually. They are quite difficult to make work well. I've tried 4 hops, 2 barrels, alignment tricks, 2 engine and at least a dozen different mags.

It's about 1.4 joules.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft thank you so much i like your youtube channel

@@DucknDiveAirsoft 1k soon :)

@@DucknDiveAirsoft oh i saw an l86a2 on the internet store and it said it shoots 460 and i cant find the video for it. there are only vids from 2010-2015

@@Smile95152 haha close!!

I suppose it could stay with the lower frame if your lucky and the wing levers don't fall off. Once the slide is off they are sort of losely held in place. Not a terribly big step either way.

Thank you!! 😁

Thank you! Appreciate the comment ☺️🙏

The first one I got a while back was orange because of availability. This time I just stuck with the same 😆. It didn't make a difference to me because I have my housing covered in Multicam vinyl anyway so you can't see the camera color haha.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft fair enough

Actually this was probably about 1 hr into a 2 hr segment haha.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft hehe gotchya bro. I've only played paintball in forested areas. Would love to try it. I'm a sucker for shooting friends and the warfare that comes with it. Thanks for the reply!

Thank you!!

You mean back and forth slop? Polarstar has shims that go around the holes by the head of the unit. You can try those. I also thought of 3D printing a plastic shim shaped like a cylinder so you can slot it behind the engine body and fill any gap to prevent it from sliding. polarstarairsoft.com/products/gearbox-shim-kit Good luck!

@@DucknDiveAirsoft yes ( back and forth ) . No problem ordering the polarstar shims. But they bill it to much by sending it to croatia 🤣 i mean probably il do it in the end. Just wanted to hear a alternative solution. Thnx anyway👍

April 13th Saturday 10am is their first date planned. Follow their Facebook for updates incase that changes due to weather or something.

@@DucknDiveAirsoft I saw that! im going! and that's gonna be my first time outdoors! (just saw it was in edmontom, I'm in Calgary)

@@OwMo4 sweet hope you enjoy it. Sunday will see more airsoft usually. Saturday guys go too but typically not as many. In the Edmonton field I mean (I'm not sure how the Calgary field is).

I havent checked but would be a interesting SSD enclosure lol.
