bought mine when it came out and i love it but the hop up nub specifically needs to be replaced cuz its to soft and small to give any hop to bbs , the mosfet is a hit or miss cuz iv'e seen them die within 1 game even on a 7.4 lipo and the nozzle needs a replacement , hopup, bucking and the 6.03 barrel do not need replacement
Ordered one after watching the video, will be delivered tomorrow. I will check it, but tend to swap the inner barrel for a steel made 363 mm precision barrel and the hop up for a maxx model in order to shoot 0.30 BBs in the field. Unfortunately I live in Germany, so under our gun laws the full-auto is deactivated...
btw if the issue still exists after 1.5 years now the mosfet trigger board will de-solder itself if you spam it to much with a 11.1 or even a 7.4v due to qc issues.
Keeping this in mind you could simply do preventative maintenance if you know how to solder (I.e undo the cheap China solder they use as soon as you get the gun and replace with pro grade stuff)
@@asher8085 or just replace it with a titan for ultimate performance lol. When these go on sale or when all cyma plats do (which is often) grab em with a titan and you got a great gun.

@@Cornbread5462 The only issue I have had so far is that the fire selector switch went bad where I couldn't put it into "safe". Most fields won't pass it in chrono if you can't click it into safe. Got it fixed and it's still great. A VERY solid gun. Great for indoors and outdoors.
@@Terminator-mz2qm No, I've not had an issue with the hop. But, my son did recently replace the stock hop with a Maxx only because he had an extra one in his parts box.
Had a customer come in yesterday with one (I work at a paintball/airsoft shop). The coloration of the handguard is funky as well as the paint finish on the receiver. That being said, having fired it, it's a pretty snappy gun. Respectable performance at least.

Also, the gate aster or gate titan are not "drop in" you will need to file down or dremel parts of the gearbox in order to fit either the aster or gate titan However, it is worth it. The stock mosfet on the CYMA platinum isnt the best and the gate aster makes it, much much better after the original mosfet broke.
@Totalfailforfun You are correct. We incorrectly stated that the part will 'drop in', implying that there is no modification required. You do, in fact, need to do some minor modification to this gearbox shell for the GATE Aster or Titan to fit. We will amend the video. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
I own one of these and I must say I was not happy with the gun. It lasted me 4 rounds before it died (something happened with the mosfet and it caused my gun to fire even when it was on safe and when I wasn’t pulling the trigger). My friend also has one and the same thing happened to his. Although these are some major problems, it might’ve been just us, and if so, the gun shot very nicely and had a very good weight to it
Were you running an 11.1? All of the Cyma Plats except for the SR-47 and the SR-25 have nasty tendencies to desolder their own mosfets when running an 11.1
I have the DDM4A1 version (400FPS supposedly) when I received it it barely gave me 290 / 320fps with .20. I also have the MK18 version (400fps version) it gave me 340 / 370fps with .20. The fps are very inconsistent, the hop-up unit, bucking and nub are trash, it's a shame.
man a Titian power 7.4 battery was way to strong for the cyma gear box had it shooting on safe, and while not even touching the trigger. completely destroyed my cyma platinum gearbox. Idk maybe I just got a lemon...
you got a lemon, i run a 7.4 titan and its more than enough for what mine can handle. I've heard of cyma platinums having a bit of QC issues stemming from their mosfet. I believe yours had a similar issue.
I bought it about a week ago, but when I try it with 0.20 bb's and a 11.1v 25C/1200mAh battery, the motor part (the grip) gives off a smell like burnt carbon, is that normal? Can it be caused by being a new replica? Anyone else has happened?
It barely has any programmability, I’m gonna switch out the mosfet that comes with it with a titan mosfet because the one that comes with it sucks ass from what I’ve heard
@@FertileHippo773 use a 11.1v for maximum performance. As for a mosfet I reccomend a perimeter v2 optical mosfet. I personally got a gate aster but it gave me a lot of problems.

The back of this receiver is made for the QBS buffer tube, specifically. Other non-QBS buffer tubes, etc., may not work.
