Inside every automatic electric gun (AEG) is a motor which drives the gearbox components when the trigger is pulled. When electricity is supplied to the motor via the switch assembly, the motor turns the gears inside the gearbox. The gears pull back and cock a spring loaded piston. At the completion of a revolution in the gearbox, the piston is released and the piston forces air forward to the BB which is waiting in the chamber. The electric gearbox found in an AEG is what is responsible for allowing to fire rapidly in semi automatic modes as well as cycle continuously for full automatic. In a simple spring powered airsoft gun, you have to cock the manually to fire each shot. With an AEG, you have the gearbox to do that for you. The parts inside an AEG however will last tens of thousands of rounds if taken care of and can be serviced and upgraded. Motors come in different types to fit various types of airsoft guns. The common form factors would be noted in the length of the shaft, such as the long shaft or short shaft motor. The short shaft motor is the second most common type of airsoft motor and is commonly found in AK or G36 style airsoft guns.

Q: How do I improve my rate of fire? A: A simple thing you could start with to improve your rate of fire is to upgrade your battery to a higher voltage one, perhaps
a Lipo (lithium polymer) battery. The next thing you could do is upgrade the motor to a higher quality aftermarket one. Though
even the best guns tout that they come with the best parts, we have found that any gun no matter how good they come
have benefited from a motor upgrade. Beyond that, changes in gearing or using techniques to lower electrical resistance is
going to require more advanced tech work for which we do offer tech services on most popular airsoft gun models. Q: How do I improve/increase my trigger response? A: Trigger response is not quite the same as rate of fire though it is often confused. Trigger response is referring to the delay
between the type you pull the trigger and signal the airsoft gun to fire to the time it actually fires. By nature, there is a very
slight and hardly noticeable delay between the time the trigger is pulled and the time the motor can turn the gears and cycle
the piston. Players who want a competitive edge and are seeking very fast and crisp semi automatic performance often want
to have their AEGs upgraded to have the best trigger response (shortest delay possible). For the novice players, it is hardly
noticeable but for seasoned players sometimes those extra ms (milliseconds) matter. Upgrades to the motor and battery
improve your rate of fire and get you to complete a cycle quicker which will as a byproduct reduce trigger response. This would
be considered your first steps in improving your trigger response before opening up your gearbox and changing out parts to
improve trigger response. Q: What is the difference between speed and torque motors? A: Speed motors tend to boost rate of fire and trades off torque. A torque motor is meant to drive stiffer springs. A motor with a
good balance of speed and torque will offer noticeable improvements to any airsoft gun.
