switching to full auto to get it working again can be an issue with the way you're shooting in semi. If you let go of the trigger before it finishes shooting, basically you stop the motor pulling in themiddle of the cycle, it's then not strong enough to resume where it stopped unless you switch to full auto. It's a weird electrical thing in the way the motor draws power between the 2 methods of shooting, or it could be that the trigger block is stuck somehow and cycling the gun in full auto gets it unstuck. It's called semi auto lock. Try not short pulling the trigger, pull it firmly and quickly all the way back every shot and wait for the gun to finish shooting until you let go and pull again.

IF that issue goes away then you know it's semi auto lock. Upgrading can reduce the likelihood of it happening but even the fastest shooting guns with the ibggest batteries and most torquey motors can still have it happen. It's just the window is much shorter.
