SRC G36C noob friendly?

You can always get a conversion kit to make it a K. Don't want to do that? Then buy the SRC K.. or the classic army K... or the ARES K...

Dude, you really need to go to an airsoft game and check out some equipment. HOLD each G36, look at the brands people play with, and THEN purchase.

I went to ASCA to buy my first airsoft gun, a FA-MAS, and ended up coming home with a G36. Holding a gun makes a world of difference to your decision.

LIPO ready means that the gearbox and other components has been reinforced to withstand the use of high voltage and high power batteries of up to 11.1 volts and can consequently be used at high ROF. Using high power LIPO in a non LIPO ready gun would create too much stress on some parts and could cause failures.

Ummm you can get 11.1volt batterys that are not Lipo fyi, so being "lipo ready" does not mean that its been built for the higher voltage. Being lipo does not = more voltage. Considering that there are several 7.4v lipo batteries out there.

The biggest difference between Lipo and non-Lipo in simple terms is how much power is readily available (more amperage per say). A regular battery provides about 22, where a lipo is 50, a typical airsoft motor draws around 32. Hence why a non-lipo battery typically heats up and drains faster then a lipo does as the motors is working harder on less available amperage. There a huge write up here on ASc about Lipo's with a link to a great review on them. Best to read up there first before giving out false information.

Yes I agree, but with a LIPO for the same voltage, there is more ROF because the motor turns faster, and if there is more ROF, there is more stress involved.
What false information are you refering to ? I didn't say LIPO is more voltage but LIPO is more power. In electricity, voltagexamps=watts and LIPO has more wattage.

Ran a lipo in my cansoft G&G M16 for about a year now no issue. last i check it wasn't lipo ready. And My 416 with an old non-reinforced CA mechbox shell for longer. a perfectly shimmed/properly adjusted motor height mechbox can handle a high power battery (as long as it doesn't have craptastic potmetal TM gears)

Ya lipo ready is a sales pich and not much more, if your ready for a m120 spring then its ready to take some strain! For those worried about there internals and still want a lipo all you need is a MarkIII trigger master and you can lower the ROF. Along with the soft start feature you'll be good.
