Valken V12 Airsoft Engine

We are entertaining the idea of bringing these in. MSRP of $500 USD (Valken is a US-based company).

Features (as per Valken):
  • Extreme Reliability
  • Unparalleled Consistency
  • Added Efficiency
  • MilSim (Full Auto) Lock Out
  • Easy Drop-In Installation
  • Quick Change Nozzle
  • Ultra Lightweight
  • Programmable
As we see it:
The integration of ECU (and controls) into the Engine itself makes fitting one of these into builds a little more simple than the other options.
Valken is a large company, so availability of these should be excellent.


As another option for an external air engine, what do you think?

P* or bust.
Maybe the SMP.

After reading about the V12, it's really a 'dummed' down version to the P*, to me anyways.
Hardly see the point.
Haven't had the greatest customer service related dealings with Valken, where as P* has been super.

smp is like 100$ away from p*... why cheap out at that point? just get the p*.

unless you want the slow ass ability to drop it into any other gearbox, then that's not a terrible thing.

P*'s fcu is just so easy to program and it tells you what you've set with a digital display. At the price point a P* is about 50 bucks more than the valken, and has far more friendly features.

Only reason I'd get the SMP over the P* is easier install in those 'wonky' different gearboxes, such as the AGM MP40.
Uses a custom V3, would be easier to install an SMP.

Unless I went with Bingo or some such.

Strongly agree with you though.

At the price point, P8 or bust.

Also, from a brand point if view, I will never buy anything Valken.
