I have to say, it&#8217;s been a bit of a rocky start and I&#8217;ve had to reach out to <a href=\"https:\/\/polarstarairsoft.com\/collections\/hpa-systems\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PolarStar<\/a> numerous times to get some help to work out the kinks. Kudos to Mike from PolarStar who&#8217;s always been very responsive and helpful. In the end, all of the issues were a result of minor installation issues and I&#8217;m happy to report, that it&#8217;s running really strong right now. It still needs some fine-tuning due to accuracy but I&#8217;m getting closer.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>At the time of this post, I am very new to this hobby. My daughter and I were introduced in October of 2022 and we are already both pretty well hooked. This is my second AR and only HPA rifle in that short time. I have a G&amp;G AEG with various upgrades, including motor, barrel, hopup, bucking, nub spring, etc. My daughter&#8217;s Specna Arms AR is still pretty stock and was solid right out of the box. We both have GBB pistols and are slowly finding our way.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ca8265 elementor-widget

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>My buddy, who introduced me to airsoft has an entire lineup of HPA rifles for him and his sons. So naturally, I got more interested in them as well. Enter the Krytac Trident MKII. It started its life as the &#8220;Foliage Green&#8221; color but as you can see I rectified that straight away. Speaking of straight away, I never even fired the gun as an electric rifle. Within minutes of unboxing, I was already breaking the gun down in preparation for the Kythera, 363mm long Prometheus barrel, MAXX hopup chamber, etc.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Unlike some AEGs, the Krytac Gen2 gearbox did need some modifications so that the air hose could be routed. I had already picked up an Amped air line and quickly found that it was going to be a real challenge to get that line to bend without kinking. Eventually, I ended up heating the plastic line that came with the Kythera, using a heat gun and shaping it so that it made the 100-degree bend and down through the grip. I also added a silicone hose over the top of the plastic line in the grip area to give it a bit more support. I used some heat shrink as well to clean up the installation. What you may or may not notice is the tiny zip-tie I used to make sure the quick-release fitting didn&#8217;t unintentionally quickly release which I found to be a problem when connecting\/disconnecting the main airline.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9ed13cc elementor-widget

into this engine. I love the trigger feel and even more, dig the idea that there are so many ways to tweak the trigger action and feel to fit your preferences. I&#8217;ve had two issues with the initial setup of the Kythera, all of which can be blamed on the engine&#8217;s location in the gearbox. Once the gearbox position is dialed, all has been good. Now I just need to make sure the nozzle alignment is dialed to get the best possible performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:image {\"id\":6514,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<p><!-- \/wp:image --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3fbd58e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3fbd58e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-1500x1125.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6514\" alt=\"Krytac Full Metal Trident MKII\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-1500x1125.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_20230202_224101-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have to say, it&#8217;s been a bit of a rocky start and I&#8217;ve had to reach out to PolarStar numerous times to get some help to work out the kinks but the end result is awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6509,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[103,83],"tags":[144,106,111,113,114,109,112,107,108,145,110,115],"class_list":["post-6508","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-airsoft","category-my-hobbies","tag-aeg","tag-airsoft","tag-evike-com","tag-gg","tag-gg-combat","tag-hpa","tag-hpa-engine","tag-krytac","tag-kythera","tag-m16","tag-polarstar","tag-specna-arms","post_format-post-format-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6508","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6508"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6508\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9411,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6508\/revisions\/9411"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6509"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6508"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6508"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visualrealms.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6508"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
