Looking for a motor that can fit the Echo 1 SCAR (any M4/M16 compatible would do). Must be able to pull an M120.

A stock JG motor will pull it fine, which is the same thing as a Echo1 motor, those guns come shooting close to 400fps to start out with.

yea a stock motor would be fine for just a M120, but you will not have the same ROF as you did.

Well that's the problem. I took it to Airdog because it kept locking up. It used to shoot 396 and everything was fine. I left it back for a while because I accidentally screwed up the motor height (was an idiot back then... lol) and now it shoots 375. The thing is, if I shoot on semi its fine, but full is risky because (as Ryan said) the battery isn't pushing the motor fast enough and if the current stops while the piston is moving it can jam the gun. I was thinking a different motor could fix this.

Thats not jamming just locking up, but yeah if you are running a mini battery, they quickly lose current while being used

Indeed that is the issue. Sadly, the SCAR can only fit a mini... it's quite frustrating.

Thats why you get a 7.4v lipo, or a small 11.1v lipo
