AST2X-R
ASTER SX for V2 gearboxes – the natural successor of ASTER SE – merges years of experience with cutting edge tech. ASTER SX is fully compatible with popular brushless motors – even with batteries up to 11.1 V. The unit heats up less even while accommodating higher loads. ASTER can operate with stronger springs and more demanding configurations. ASTER SX comes with a free Quantum Trigger, so you can easily set sensitivity from ludicrous touch through hair to full movement. Improved programming via trigger gives you settings such as automatic Pre-Cocking, trigger sensitivity adjustment, Active Brake settings with top-class adaptive mode. Calibration available just via trigger and selector movement. ASTER V2 SX turns your AEG into future-proof advanced training equipment. All this, along with a thicker and sturdier PCB – 1 mm in thickness – makes ASTER V2 SX one of the most durable ETUs on the market.
What distinguishes ASTER V2 SX from the competition?
ASTER SX is future-proof, thanks to compatibility with USB-Link and Blu-Link. You can update your firmware and get new options, connect additional accessories, check telemetry.
What is an ETU? It is an Electronic Trigger Unit replacing trigger contacts and the cut-off lever, which takes control of your AEG.
Why ASTER's programming via trigger is user-friendly?
-you do not need to rush
-you can navigate the menu very quickly and efficiently or slowly and calmly
-the colours of the led lights are only a help – you can rely on the vibration of the motor
-in case of any problems, you can use the very popular USB-Link or Blu-Link and use the GCS App
What is the self-learning automatic pre-cocking?
thanks to Pre-cocking, you gain trigger reaction similar to real life
it will automatically set piston position
it is easy-to-use, just set one of the 3 modes: LOW, MID or HIGH
it automatically adapts to the battery voltage and rate of fire
ASTER gives you great flexibility and is future-proof. Today you can program the most important functions with the trigger, and tomorrow you can borrow a USB-Link or Blu-Link from a friend to configure advanced functions, perform a firmware update, run diagnostics or use the GCS app on a smartwatch
Hair-trigger – up to 60 sensitivity in the first millimetre of trigger movement
Top-notch automatic pre-cocking
Foregoing reverse polarity protection in exchange for unparalleled performance
You can update its firmware via the Internet
ASTER is a part of the GATE Ecosystem
Lowest in the market current consumption. Deep sleep mode with only 0.29 mA current consumption prevents battery discharge
Built-in voltage boost converter allows for trouble-free operation with weaker batteries and increases the switching efficiency
3.75 V ready – it operates at very low voltage (even 1.2 V during the shot), which is important in high-tuned AEGs, where the voltage under load drops significantly
Sensor that supports Infinite Torque-up, DSG, SSG, 19-tooth and standard gears
The possibility of using a mechanical trigger lock
