A softer but longer spring does have an advantage over a shorter but harder
spring. A softer spring imposes less initial load on the motor and should work
gently at 8.4V most of the time. A harder spring may require a very powerful
battery (such as a GP 3300 8.4V or a Sanyo 2000 9.6V) just to get started.
A very hard spring has the potential of breaking the internals. However, based
on our experience, as long as it doesn’t go over 400FPS (meaning the spring
should be hard but relatively short), even stock gears will survive (under proper
usage of course).
