ASCU 2 Mosfet

Post2013-06-03 / 21:32 UTC GMT +00:00

This product has been out for years but I guess it's never too late to do a review, lol

ASCU 2 (Airsoft Smart Control Unit Generation 2) - a complete replacement of your entire version 2 gearbox trigger switch assembly. Retail price was $100.

PROS

Durability:
• Installed more than 2 years ago and still alive

• Took a good abuse from the following batteries:
* Previous battery: 11.1V 45C 1300 mAh. Used one year or more but had to change it as no magazines can feed my gun in full-auto mode (hence 45C rating)
* Current battery: 11.1V 30C 1350 mAh

Features:
• Active breaking
* anti reverse latch not required (it never leave your spring compressed)
* beyond fast trigger response

• Programmable firing mode
* Semi only
* Semi + Full auto + 3 round burst (my favourite)
* Semi + 3 round burst


CONS

Design:
• For version 2 gearbox only
• Rear wired only (no front wired)
• Bulky chipset that has to be hidden inside the buffer tube and this means you can’t have your battery in the tube
• Very thin data cable and can break easily. Also hard to find replacement


RATING: (1-POS, 5-Poor, 7-Average, 10-Excellent)

Durability: 10
Features: 10
Design: 8

Total Score: 9.3

Overall, I am very satisfied with this product. All cheap mosfets I’ve used prior to this didn’t last long… either they stopped working, melted or didn’t perform as they should like preventing too much arcs in the trigger switch contacts.

Here is the link for the ASCU2 manual:

ASCU3 is now available. Retail price is $160 but it comes with a complete kit and no more bulky chipset.

WANT!

Is that why she sounds like a PTW (sort of)...

Hard install? Can it be front wired?

Great review.

Great review.


As the inventor said "ASCU Turns Your AEG into a PTW for $100"

It's easy to install. Only modification required is by increasing the cut/space by 5mm on the selector plate where you place the spring.

Front wired? Not worth it...too much modification to do. The wires can only be soldered at the rear side of the trigger switch assembly (ASCU unit). No access to the front for soldering because the front is (plastic) enclosed. The thin data cable is too fragile for front wire set-up. You could break the data cable from rubbing everytime you detach your upper from lower receiver.

I have two of these unit. Installed in my 400fps and in my HIGH ROF. Both gearboxes hasn't been opened for about 2years now due to the data cable being too fragile.
