PolarStar “Kythera” HPA Engine for Airsoft Rifles (Model: SA – Ver3 AK)

PolarStar Kythera HPA Engine for Airsoft Rifles – Ver3 AK (Mechanical HPA System)

Upgrade your AK AEG platform with the PolarStar “Kythera” HPA Engine – Ver3 AK, the most advanced and eagerly awaited mechanical HPA system from PolarStar Airsoft. Engineered from the ground up as a fully mechanical, high-performance drop-in engine, the Kythera delivers groundbreaking efficiency, incredible consistency, and unmatched realism—all without electronics or batteries.

Whether you’re building a precision DMR, CQB blaster, or rugged field rifle, the Kythera SA Ver3 offers game-changing performance in a compact and waterproof package.

True Mechanical Innovation – No Batteries Required

Unlike traditional HPA systems that rely on solenoids, electronics, or FCUs, the Kythera was built from scratch as a mechanical system. That means no batteries, no wires, and no electronics—making it completely waterproof and virtually immune to field failure due to electrical issues.

This is not a conversion of an existing design; it’s a revolutionary air-powered system that functions with pure mechanical precision.

Realistic Trigger Feel – Like a True Firearm

What truly sets the Kythera apart is its single-action, firearm-style trigger mechanism. The hardened alloy steel sears interact with the stainless steel spool valve just like a real firearm’s hammer and sear system. This provides a crisp, tactile trigger break and reset that feels more authentic than anything else in airsoft.

With full trigger adjustability—including weight, length of pull, and over-travel—you can dial in the perfect feel for your shooting style.

---

Consistent Closed-Bolt Performance

The Kythera completes a full shot cycle on the trigger pull alone, allowing consistent closed-bolt performance similar to PolarStar’s Fusion Engine and F2. The nozzle chambers the next BB and the firing volume refills automatically—no need to release the trigger first.

This means faster follow-up shots, improved accuracy, and significantly reduced chance of double feeds. It’s built for speed, precision, and dependability.

Superior Efficiency and Wide Velocity Range

The Kythera’s patent-pending valve system is ultra-efficient—using 100% of the air input for each shot, without a pilot valve. The valve opens and closes purely through spring force, ensuring perfect shot-to-shot consistency every time, regardless of input pressure.

With a wide pressure range of 60–180 PSI, the Kythera allows for flexible velocity tuning. When tested with a 6.05mm x 380mm barrel and 0.20g BBs, velocities ranged from 270 to 500 FPS, allowing the Kythera to perform in CQB, field, or sniper roles with just a pressure adjustment.

Easy Installation & Versatile Compatibility

The Kythera SA Ver3 installs easily into any standard Ver3 AK-style gearbox with no major modifications. The system comes as a single pre-assembled unit, and only a few original gearbox components (trigger, safety, selector, spring guide) need to be retained.

The universal charging cord allows manual cocking of the spool valve if pressure drops too low—ensuring reliable operation in any scenario.
