    Nice video! BTW, I have counted the teeth on SHS gears and found out that "100:200" has a ratio of 23.8:1 while "100:300" has 26.4:1.
    SHS 100:200 Pinion 10, Bevel 30/10, Spur 45/21, Sector 37 => 23.8:1
    SHS 100:300 Pinion 10, Bevel 30/9, Spur 45/21, Sector 37 => 26.4:1

    The reason the helical gears is more silent then spur gears is that it has more teeth engaged at the time on the meshing gear. If you don't go with a helical piniongear the sound will still be loud since this gear is the one with the highest amount of revolution.
    I belive that if you install a helical pinon you will get the sound you are looking for.

      Actually its less surface. It engages from one end to the other as a straight cut its the full width of the teeth

      @@wrenchtheroo6557 I don't know if Tariq edited his post, but I didn't see anything about surface contact and he is correct that more than one tooth is meshing at the same time. And they slide into each other instead of pounding into each other. Straight cut gears can handle more torque and have less friction. Helical are quieter, their only advantage. Also the most noise reduction will be from a set of helical pinion/bevel gears.

    Wanted to add a couple supplementary comments on using helical gears. The more technical reason they are theoretically quieter is because torque is distributed gradually between the teeth as they engage, and also because the angled profile pushes the gears apart axially into the bushings/bearings, removing slop. I say theoretically because the higher ratio results in more gear and motor movement, which ultimately plays a bigger role in noise you hear.
    The main upside I find is their durability. The teeth are generally thicker by design, and in my experience wear more evenly. The higher ratio also requires less torque from the motor, which is good for your batteries. The downsides are they are harder to install, and need a more specific setup. I have found they work best with a faster or mid speed motor and active braking mosfet.
    It would be interesting to see lower ratio options for helical gears in the future.

    • @bbevis2357
      @bbevis2357 4 роки тому +1

      Another note. 100:300 I believe is 26:1 ratio, not 36:1. The only difference in the 100:300 and 100:200 is a 9 or 10 tooth bevel gear, at least for the shs sets.
      For anyone interested in getting a set at this time you can get new shs sets at Airsoft Atlanta for $14 or $15

  • @mnlgrnwd4152
    @mnlgrnwd4152 4 роки тому +3

    this vid helped a lot with the basics. I do have a question tho that hasnt been adressed: Could you explain the Gear Ratio given by the manufacturer? Usually we work with 13:1 - 20:1 which is simple to understand, 20 rotations of the bevel gear turn into 1 rotation of the sector gear. Gear Ratios with helicals are denominated 100:200 or 100:300. I don't get that.
    How do you arrive at the 24:1 and 36:1 and how does the calculation work? I know these questions are delving into detail but your help would be appreciated. thank you!

    I'm not entirely sure what advantage the helical gears can provide for airsoft other than quieter operation. Also I've never seen tappered roller bearings or thrust bearings being widely available in airsoft sizes to work with these helical gears. The added axial load would make the gear train less efficient.

    What's the point of ball bearings instead of bushings inside aegs?
    isn't the springs and the motor going to defeat the purpose of them since aegs are not designed for long continuous rotations
    Usually, everything that uses ball bearings has a goal of reducing friction to improve speed and efficiency (skateboards will roll further, fans can run more efficiently, ect)

      @@oooppiikkk The motor works with the system as a whole, every bit of resistance costs you time and battery, you can't neglect the friction during spring compression, there is always friction on the gear's axles while the system is engaged, being the spring engaged or not.
      Ball bearing have a lower friction for the axles at the cost of a more fragile piece, they also usually keep lubrication for more time, making them almost always better in low/mid powered applications.
