Aeg motor drop

[SHIFTk20]

My motor in my ares ump keeps dropping and I keep having to get it fixed, can anyone help me out and let me know if there is a better motor out there that won't drop and what I can do to fix this problem? It's getting really annoying thanks

What do you mean by drop? You mean the motor height drops and u strip the gear?

What do you mean by "drop"?
Like the motor keeps falling out of height adjustment? Just put blue loctite on the adjustment screw.

Ya it keeps falling out of height adjustment and I have put blue loctite but still keeps dropping. It stays for about 300 shots then falls down again And just hear it spinning when you pull the trigger

Try red loctite then?

Let the thread locker set before shooting.

I let it set for about 48 hours every time, do you guys recommend a different Motor

I recommend being more careful routing the wires, perhaps one of them is holding the motor up and after about 300 shots moves letting the motor drop

Use a motor plate/plastic shims to set the motor height if the issue won't go away. It's a v3 gearbox if I'm not mistaken so you should be able to do it fairly easy.

Thanks I'll try that out

[Hectic]

Yeah it has nothing to do with the motor. Either loctite, super glue(pain to remove) or shim it. New motor will still need to be adjusted correctly and stay once its set.

Thank you

Are you sure it's not the pinion gear that's moving out of position?

Did you lose the little metal disc that is supposed to sit between the motor and the adjustment screw?
