Alright all, since Frost is starting threads about builds, I'm going to start threads about builds. There will be no cutting corners.

Custom Masada PRS stock on the gun, and even more custom fitting a battery inside that stock. I believe I can get a stick type 11.1v 20c 1600mah in there. Not the biggest battery in the world, but it'll have to do. My only other option for more juice would be running two lipos, and they're supposed to be identical batteries to do that.

Power goes to a Chimera mosfet, and yes, I have to find a place for the brick of that mosfet too.

The motor I have in there is a G&P M170 Devil Jet, which should do the job. I still don't own a Lonex motor, but I don't think its worth replacing the Devil Jet to get one.

RiotSC gearset. Enough said there.

Existing piston needs to go, its a half tooth. I'll probably just get a SHS Blue piston for replacement.

AOE corrected.

Sorbo added.

Any strong opinions on piston heads? Otherwise I'll stick with something metal; whatever I can get my hands on that's decent. I may go ahead and add a slightly larger O-Ring though.

SP170 it shall be.

Radius GB shell

Metal Hop up unit. I've never cared about that before. Additional opinions?

Appropriate hop up mods.

Prommy 6.03 .... 509mm I guess

Ok... Maybe not. Assuming I want to retain function of the adjustable cheek riser. I could scrap all those parts, attach the riser permanently, and probably fit this battery.... but. I'm going to look into a 2 battery approach.

You might have more success using a split-cell butterfly battery.

I say this only BC you say no cutting corners why not go with a orga wide bore barrel 6.23 or a pdi 6.05?

Well, I MIGHT go with the 6.05, I'd have to look into them a little bit more.

From what I've seen about the orgas, they work well with polar stars when you have plenty of extra air volume. But the advantage on an AEG is debatable. And I'd prefer the higher fps of a tighter barrel.

Orga makes a 6.13mm version of their barrels, that might work.

They make a coated 6.13mm version. For top of the line, coated barrels are never an option.

well I love my pdi 6.05, and I have used prometheus 6.03 and felt like the pdi were superior. Now if they are worth the difference in price for the amount of performance is the question. Most say no. I happen to just get my pdi at a discount.

Looks like I'll be able to fit the brain of the Chimera and a decent battery in here after all!
