Hi folks.
Could someone please explain to me the purpose of the mico limit switch on a taigen bb unit compared to a heng long bb unit that does not have one
Ie what does it actually do and what does it connect to.
Any pictures of it would be very useful in understanding its purpose.
Regards
Sub.

Glad you've resolved the query. My understanding is that all newer Heng Long and Taigen Airsoft units are pretty well identical. The purpose of the micro-switch is to trigger the track recoil, and cannon sound effect, as the gun fires. Models from a few years ago didn't feature the switch.
Asiatam/Taigen recoil units have (gear driven) limit switches to initiate the recoil, and also to trigger the gun sound. There is no limit switch as such on the BB unit.
