GateAster V2 SE Lite Mosfet + Quantum Trigger Rear Wired
ASTER V2 SE raises the price-performance ratio including in the set Quantum Trigger and new functions programmable via trigger. Now, out-of-the-box, you can set sensitivity from ludicrous ‘touch’ through ‘hair’ to full movement. Improved programming via trigger gives you new settings like automatical pre-cocking (LOW, MID, HIGH), trigger sensitivity adjustment, active brake settings with top-class adaptive mode and new SAFE - SEMI - BINARY selector mode. Calibration, DTC codes - all available just via trigger and selector movement. Additionally, you get brushless motor support and new noise-resistant trigger detection algorithm. ASTER's smart fuse protects your AEG’s battery, motor and the controller, even in case of reverse battery connection. This feature, along with the optical sensors, makes ASTER SE one of the most durable ETU on the market.
ASTER is not just regular ETU/EFCS mosfet. It is the complex system that turns your AEG into future-proof advanced training weapon. You choose how to configure ASTER – simply via trigger or through USB-Link / Blu-Link and our advanced GCS App. You can ask your technician or borrow from friend very popular USB-Link or Blu-Link and use GCS app to update ASTERs firmware, carry out diagnostics or change settings in a very convenient way. If you like it you can get your own Blu-Link and use Smartwatch app, giving you real-time weapon data to reinforce your tactical decisions.
What makes ASTER V2 SE so special?
- Everything you need out-of-the-box
- Quantum Trigger included in the kit
- No need to use USB-Link for installation and configuration
- New noise-resistant trigger detection algorithm
- Hair-trigger out-of-the box. Even 60 trigger sensitivities for the 1st mm (0.04 in) of movement
- Additional protection against interferences thanks to multi-layer PCB with EMC shield
- Automatical pre-cocking: LOW / MID / HIGH
- Compatibility with brushless motors
- Trigger sensitivity adjustment without any limitation
- Improved cycle detection
- Active brake adjustment: Adaptive / 100% / 60% / Brushless motor / OFF
- New selector mode: SAFE - SEMI - BINARY instead of SAFE - BINARY - AUTO
- GCS App allows for making firmware updates via the internet, which enables quick applying of improvements
What distinguishes ASTER V2 SE from the competition?
- 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 millimeter of trigger movement
- Top-notch automatical pre-cocking
- ASTER is resistant to reverse polarity
- You can update its firmware via the Internet
- ASTER is a part of GATE Advanced Weapon 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
- 3.75V ready - it operates at very low voltage (even 1.2V 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
- Compatibility with brushless motors
ASTER is future-proof, thanks to compatibility with USB-Link and Blu-Link. You can update firmware and get new options, connect additional accessories, check telemetry.
Why ASTERs programming trigger is user-friendly?
- you do not need to rush
- you can navigate the menu very quickly and efficiently or slowly and calmly
- the colors 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 borrowed very popular USB-Link or Blu-Link and use GCS App
What is self-learning automatical pre-cocking?
- thanks to Pre-cocking, you gain trigger reaction similar to a real gun
- it will automatically set piston position
- it is easy-to-use, just set one of 3 modes: LOW, MID or HIGH
- it automatically adapts to the battery voltage and rate of fire
GATE Control Station App
ASTER and GATE Control Station give you total control of your AEG. The GCS offers you the option to:
- control your airsoft gun from a smartphone with Android, iOS and PC with Windows or macOS
- get real-time data from the smartwatch (with Wear OS or watchOS) to reinforce your tactical decisions and get the advantage necessary to win. No more surprises with an empty magazine or a discharged battery.
- simply adjust the ASTER settings
- update and upgrade firmware
- see the BB counters and Measurements statistics
- perform diagnostics and send reports
Optical sensors
ASTER has optical sensors for detecting gear cam, trigger and selector position.
Trigger sensitivity adjustment
The trigger sensor offers you even 470 possible sensitivity settings. You do not have to disassemble your AEG. Just use GCS App to adjust the trigger to your preferences and level of skills. You can even activate 2-stage trigger and set two different trigger sensitivities. Pulling the trigger slightly produces Semi or Burst fire and pulling the trigger further produces Burst, Burst / Auto or Auto fire. The 1.5 gen. proximity trigger sensor offers the following sensitivity ranges, depending on trigger construction:
- In total: 160–470 levels
- In the first millimeter of trigger movement: 3–60 levels
Selector switching point adjustment
The selector sensor gives you an option for fine calibration of selector switching point.
Please note: Selector switching point cannot be set while programming via trigger.
