whinny motor

hello all. I have a 2 month old new version of ctw. I noticed that the motor appeared to be whining /making a funny sound every time it fires. The shop where I bought this said its due the spring recoiling. I certainly think it is something other than that. The gun is firing properly though but the noise is pretty much annoying and I can feel it vibrates. Thanks in advance for the inputs.

That would be because the motor is unwinding, and you need it rewound. A guy on the PTW forums named Tackleberry does rewinding and mods of the motor to make it last longer for 82euros.

i noticed my motor vibrating a little more then normal today too, but there isn't any whining. It sounds clean.

+1 on tackleberry. heard a lot of good stuff about that guy. he's located in UK and he does motor work, ECU waterproofing and more.
turn around time is quite a wait for he's busy. i suggest have him do not only the motor but all the problem that u are experiencing with your CTW.

I dont play in the rain with either my CTW or PTW even if it is water proofed! Too expensive do get a tad bit wet and then ruin the electronics... Thats why i have a backup standard aeg!

Waterproof your boards yourself ... lookup CorrosionX. I use it on RC boat servos, electronic speed controls, handheld radios, $300 RC transmitters and of course the boards in my CTW (for sale) and my PTW
