Have you ever dreamed of Polarizing your MP5, G3 or SCAR? With the introduction of the GEN3, now you can! At first glance the GEN3 FEV2 looks very much like the GEN2 and, for the most part, the two are quite similar. However, unlike its predecessor, the FEV2 GEN3 is no longer just for the M4/M16 series rifle. We applied the same concept used with our Version 3 Fusion Engine™ so that it is now able to interface with the selector plate and related components of your existing AEG’s gearbox. This makes it possible to adapt the engine for use in multiple rifle models which share the Version 2 gearbox without any major modification.
The FEV2 GEN3 will come complete with a M4/M16 series trigger and steel selector plate so that it can be installed into any M4/M16 series AEG which is Tokyo Marui compatible. However, by installing a different nozzle or rifle specific conversion kit, you will be able to expand the number of rifles it will be compatible with. In most cases all you’ll need to do is change out the trigger and selector components with ones from your AEG, install a different Fusion Engine™ nozzle, and the engine is ready to use in a completely different model of rifle.
The internal operation of the GEN3 FEV2 and the GEN2 FEV2 cylinder assembly are exactly the same and share many of the same parts, so it offers the same stellar downrange performance and rock solid reliability as its predecessor. This GEN3 does however feature a new side plate design to accommodate the AEG selector plate and is equipped with a new electronic switchboard. One advantage to this new design is that the switchboard offers a wider contact point with the selector plate to allow for varying tolerances in the rifles selector assembly making for improved out-of-the-box compatibility with an increased number of rifle brands.
As requested by many of our fans, the FEV2 GEN3 will come standard with our newly redesigned “Milsim Manifold”. This feature enables the user to install an optional 90 degree fitting inside of their engine allowing the air line to be routed to the rear of the engine and exit through the buffer tube sling plate on an M4 series rifle.
The Version 2 GEN3 Fusion Engine™ is currently going through the final stages of production along with the first run of additional nozzle sets for the MP5, G3 and SCAR-H. The engines and MP5/G3 nozzles are slated to start shipping to dealers the week of Feb. 15th while the SCAR-H nozzles are scheduled to start shipping the following week.
We hope that the introduction of this new generation engine helps enforce that PolarStar is dedicated to improving our products and that the interests of our valued customers do not go unnoticed.
This particular item is for the drop-in box and FCU only. Please be aware that this will fit MOST
V2 M4 Bodies. However, there may be some cases where it will require
slight fitting to ensure 100% performance. Please consult with PolarStar
to make sure that this will fit your specific body.
Connector Type: JST
Please note that all Fusion Engines and PR-15s now come with a JST type connector! If you would like us to change your connector to a typical tamiya or to include a JST lead for your battery, please contact us directly after you place your order so we can adjust your order for you.

If you feel uncomfortable installing your Fusion Engine, we highly recommend sending your Fusion Engine and rifle for professional installation. Please keep in mind that if a Fusion Engine is installed incorrectly and there are fitting issues, this will not be covered under warranty. You will be responsible for paying a certified technician to install the system if it needs to be sent in due to incorrect installation. Labor rates for installation will be $35 an hour by our PolarStar certified technicians.
All drop in Fusion Engines come with the Blue Nozzle,
which outputs anywhere from 380 to 435 FPS with .20g BBs at max input
pressure of 120psi depending on barrel length, brand, etc.
The muzzle velocity with a given nozzle is partially determined by the
length of the barrel therefore the examples below are approximated FPS
for reference when using an M4 carbine length barrel (363-375mm) with
.20g BBs at the max input pressure of 120psi. An M16 rifle length barrel
(509mm) will bump this up by an average of 30-40fps.
Nozzles (based on stock M4 length Barrel at 120PSI):
Green - 325fps
Gold - 366fps
Blue - 405fps
Black -455fps
Silver - 494fps
Red - 550fps

FAQ (from PolarStar's Facebook)
What Is The PolarStar Fusion Engine and PR-15 EPAR?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The PolarStar PR-15 EPAR (Electro-Pneumatic Airsoft Rifle) is
powered by PolarStar's Fusion Engine (patent pending) and is capable of
fulfilling any role in a variety of field conditions. You will be able
to play as a sniper, rifleman, support gunner, etc by simply adjusting
your settings on the Fire Control Unit (FCU) with LCD display and
joystick.
Save money and bid farewell to those late nights spent hassling with
last minute upgrades, downgrades, reshimming and tuning. No more
headaches hunting for replacement parts and hoping what you need is in
stock just so you can play the next day. The PolarStar PR-15 EPAR gives
you several different rifles in one reliable, easy to use package.
Will The Fusion Engine Fit Into My M4/M16 AEG?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! We have digitized the gearbox dimensions of most major airsoft
manufacturers to ensure a wide range of compatibility with Version 2
TM-compatible M4/M16 gearboxes. Now you can upgrade your Tokyo Marui,
Classic Army, VFC, KWA, etc using our Fusion Engine drop-in kit.
Is The Fusion Engine Compatible with AEG Hopup and Inner Barrels?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! We designed our Fusion Engine to be fully compatible with Tokyo
Marui Version 2 AEG hopup units and AEG inner barrels. Every PolarStar
PR-15 EPAR includes a VFC Hopup and VFC Tight Bore Barrel installed.
Does the Fusion Engine really have "open bolt" and "closed bolt" modes?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! "Open Bolt" mode is similar to the normal AEG firing cycle: Nozzle
retracts, round is fed, nozzle returns, round is fired immediately
after. "Open Bolt" mode eliminates the possibility of dry firing after a
mag change and allows you to immediately engage targets with the first
trigger pull. This is mode best for riflemen and machinegunners.
In "Closed Bolt" mode, the round is fired first, then the nozzle
cycles feeding the next round into the hopup chamber. "Closed Bolt" mode
offers the fastest trigger response with no delay in semi-auto. The BB
is also given time to seat consistently between each shot improving
accuracy. This mode is ideal for snipers and designated marksmen.
Is It True I Don't Need Expensive Gas Mags for the PR-15?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! Another cost effective feature of the PolarStar PR-15 is that it
can use just about any Tokyo Marui-compatible M4/M16 AEG magazine. You
can reuse all your standard mags, hicaps, midcaps and real cap mags with
the PolarStar PR-15.
How Many Shots Can I Get Out Of My HPA Air Tank?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shot count is determined by tank volume, tank pressure and operating
pressure. A very conservative calculation is (Tank Capacity) x (Tank
Pressure/100) = Shots. For example, in one of the least efficient setups
an 88ci / 4500psi tank would be 88 x 45 = 3960 shots at 110psi (400fps
w/ .2g in a CQBR).
What Kind of Battery Can I Use With The Fusion Engine?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any common airsoft battery from 7.4V up to 12V will work fine. A common brand name9V alkaline will also work. The Fusion Engine's Fire Control Unit (FCU)
comes with a JST connector installed, however, and common connector can be installed.
Does the Fusion Engine's FCU save my last settings?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes! Your settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are retained
even if power is removed. Factory defaults can be restored by holding in
the programming button down before applying power to the FCU.
