the battery fitting in the front end can be eased by moving all of the wiring and fuse box to above the barrel, cable tie in place and a mini size battery fits in the front hand guard ok.

So glad it's not just me, found the same on the top full ris rail, hinged at the front with a friction pin, it's fine while the top screws are in, but as you remove them it falls away like a clowns car doors!

Sorted, re-fitted fuse box etc on top of barrel. Replaced cable clips, beefed up motor connectors too. Battery goes in in seconds now. Happy days. Why do they make the fuse cover box so big?? Bizzare. Thanks for all the tips and feedback. Appreciated.

Thanks, I will do just that. Appreciate the feedback.

Thanks. As I have just bought a new 8.4v and smart charger I will tinker and see it it's possible to relocate the fuse box above the barrel, I think I will need to remove the top cover of the hand guard first. But I will defo look up the lipo sticks as well. Cheers

Thanks for the replies, it seemed odd that the battery supplied did not easily fit the gun. Will a 7.4 lipo run the gun as well as the 8.4 niam?

Hi, I have a CYMA all metal M4 CQB SIR. The gun came with an 8.4v nunchuck style battery, non branded and it took me about 45 mins of fumbling around to get the battery into the hand guard. I have just picked up a spare battery, and went for the mini type, which I thought would be a better and...

Thanks Ian, yes I spotted the noob guide all too late unfortunately. The gun is working fine now, and I have a better battery on the way and a few little additions to the gun too. It's a full metal M4 so on the whole it's ok, I reackon most of the paint will wear off too after a couple of games...

Thanks for that info, i guess the Sandpitt will have to wait until a bit later on, i only have a two tone AEG at the moment and need to get my games in to sort registration etc, but then i have a wish list...i think i will head over to Either Billericay or Dragons lair, as the game dates fit...

Spare M4 hi cap mag Desert cam camelback Spare 8.4v mini battery Smart charger Carbon knuckle gloves (sand) 5000 bbs :) Nearly sorted ?

Hi Baz, any idea of the name of the one near bluewater, as that would be just a stones throw away from me. i have done a search but only came up with sites that were no longer running. cheers

HI, thanks for the heads up on Dragon Lairs, i will check it out

HI Baz, yes hindsight is a wonderful thing. but lesson now learnt. not sure i will get as far as AWA or RIFT just yet, Billericay is a 40 min drive as it is, but i am sure i will get around as the bug gets a true grip of me.

Hi all. i am new to the airsofting world, but getting myself sorted to attend my first skirmishing day in November. I have gradually put together a desert loadout via ebay etc, and i am just getting sorted for spare mags etc. I wanted to share some newbie experience as a warning for others. i...
