my echo1 mp5 is broke...I pull the trigger and I don't hear the motor at all, but I'm pretty sure the motor is fine..my friend took it apart and it shot with the gearbox open but when he closed it, it hasthe same problem...I really really don't want to deal with it, because I'm sure I'll screw it up...but can someone tell me what's going on? thanks!

should have bought a TM sorry man.

Try a known working motor. Are the wires getting hot?

I have the same problem with my m4, im saving up for a slr 105 thoug, but if someone could help that be great, and andrew not to interject or anything, but my wires (the guns) do get hot.

Really hot?

Check the fuse also.

okay...I'll try one of my friends' motors next time I see them...see if that helps

Do this before you try a new motor:

Bypass the fuse: see the connectors that hold the fuse? Connect them. Bam, fuse is bipassed.

yea if you had the like $140 for the echo1 or JG

Echo 1 / JG isn't a bad brand considering the prices.
