I have/had a regular A-5. All the A-5 Steath is is an A-5 with Flatline, stock and remote.

Good points about regular A-5:

  • Cyclone completely prevents chops and misfires
  • Trigger frame is stout, feels nice
  • Durable, and will always work
  • Easy to strip

Bad

  • Cyclone can be cumbersome
  • Slightly heavy
  • Stock barrel is awful
  • Not very efficient

And we should point out that the "A-5 Stealth" is not particularly stealthy.  The A-5 is a loud gun, and the Flatline is a loud barrel.  Put together, they are more loud.

1.big gas hog

2.kinda heavy

i started out with the a-5, and hooked it up till it was a stealth. good things are just wat every one is saying + the loud noise when it shoots really intimidates beginers lol. bad stuff could be the weight, but if you have a problem with that, then just lift some weights lol.

overall i have had no problems when it was stock, and no problems after i hooked it up.
