3-Round Burst, etc AEG mosfet computers product lauch coming!
 

This is to announce the AEG Fire Control Computers I will be launching for sale sometime in the next couple weeks!

EDIT: THE STORE AND PRODUCT HAVE LAUNCHED!

This is 100% assembled and serviced in Canada! :) No cross-border nonsense to deal with.

TRIGGER MASTER Full AEG Fire Control Computer
- 100% electronic control provides:
- Semi-auto
- 3-round burst
- Full auto
- Fully programmable
- Low battery warning
- Replaces AEG fuse
- Enhanced motor and battery operation

The devices you've all come know and drool over from http://extreme-fire.com are being produced (with permission) right here in Canada.

The basic SW-COMPUTER units will be available right off the bat, and I will be also making available some units with enhanced features in the future. I can also do custom programming for specific requests (for example, a unit to make an MP40 fire at a more realistic 500rpm, etc).

You can watch for the launch announcement here on ASC in the For Sale section where they will be available for sale, or you can watch http://unconventional-airsoft.com/store for launch news and details.

They will be 65$ each.

What is the price range?

3rd burst would be nice :)

65 CDN each. (I've added to the original post, thanks for pointing out the oversight)

These are at this very moment being assembled and tested - they are 100% going to be available right here!

Awesome stuff Don, can't wait to see one of these in person.

Semi.. Burst.. AND full?

I'm sold.

this is awesome I want 10 of them !!!

Is there a fuse assocaited or built into this thing? I am thinking we would have a piece of electronics to fry if something went wrong :(

I'm awfully tempted (the above is my prime reservation).

Can you do a burst of 6?

He did say "will be also making available some units with enhanced features in the future. I can also do custom programming for specific requests" :)

well there is a built-in mosfet, so it's not supposed to fry.

So are these pretty much the same as the ones from extreme-fire?

I was wondering the same thing. To be more precise, are these the Extreme-Fire FETs except made in Canada? If not, in what ways do these differ?

Different units are going to be available with different features.

The same ones as the extreme-fire.com SW-COMPUTER are going to be the first ones available. They are being made, sold, and serviced here in Canada with permission of extreme-fire.com.

This video demonstrates the unit: YouTube - AEG SW-Computer by Extreme-Fire by Maks of SOG Airsoft

Specialized fire control units custom-made for different applications will be coming. These units will be specially made for semi-only DM or Sniper guns, or to make specific guns more closely match the rate-of-fire of their real-world counterparts, etc.

But the first ones available will be the same ones as extreme-fire.com (except they are made, sold, and serviced in Canada).

There is a fuse built in to protect the electronics, yes. The fuse is self-resetting, too!

Nice product! Can't wait to get one

The SW-computer does not have a fuse, but it have active monitoring and the gun will self protect by shutting down the power in the event of high drain, low battery... well real the feature list at extreme-fire.com a fuse is not needed with this.

How much heat do these guys produce and how easily do they fail?

Can these be used in AEPs?

Very little heat. It's a MOSFET switch with computer control so it's capable of taking quite a load. If it does overheat, it shuts itself down. I think Gandalf's original production run of 50-60 units or so only had 2 fail, and 1 was due to inproper assembly.

The latest count of units says that there is 91 units out there now and less than a handful failures. Pretty good for a brand new concept I think

The unit shuts down if the temperature exceeds 75 degree C, if my memory serves me correct. Doing the beta trails, it was the one failure I just could not provoke.

awesome, i know a buch of my club members that would be very interested.

Actually there is a fuse on the board (200mA SMD resetting fuse), but it's there to protect the electonics. I thought that was what Mud was asking about (he sounded worried about the board itself frying.)

Theoretically it could, might need some modifications though.

Your problem will be fitting it INTO the AEP though. AEPs are pretty densely packed inside.

Will be releasing this week!

There will be 3 options available at launch:

Standard Burst/Fullauto (Safe-Semi-Burst/Full) - With selector on "full", a 3 round burst is fired. Gun goes full auto if the trigger remains held down.

Burst Only (Safe-Semi-Burst) - Same as above, but without the fullauto when the trigger held down. (Similar to the original M16A1)

Semi-Locked (Safe-Semi-Semi) The gun is locked in the semi-only mode. This is useful for sniper guns where semi-only locking is a requirement.

Anywhere a fuse holder can fit, this can fit.

Love the retard-proof instructions, makes installation that much easier.

Yup was worried about the board itself frying. Don, will try and remember to send you a PM on this topic later.

This topic is more and more intriguing the more I learn about it....

It's alive!

These are now available, and the online store is open!

You will need some technical know-how to install this. You can read the included Quickstart documentation here -- if nothing in there looks too scary, you're good to go!

Q: Is the mosfet soldered to the board or do you use the tiny sockets like Gandolf does.

circled yellow tiny sockets. btw your shipping charge is awesomely low! :)

How would the wiring work with an AUG as I know the trigger contacts are a bit funny with them.

Hey are you willing to accept EMT?

That's the microcontroller (i.e. the brains) not either the main (big thing on the left) or braking (on other side of the board) mosfet.

But yes, it's socketed!

And the low shipping price is thanks to the package being small enough, so domestic shipping is nice and low if it's sent as regular mail. Xpresspost is much more expensive though.

Sure do! EMT's the preferred method if you're willing.

I'm not really familiar with the AUG, but you can splice into existing wiring for any of the connections you need to make to minimize hassle.

So far the easiest has been the AK. The trigger and motor contacts are separate and run right outside the mechbox. Super easy.
