Biu-Blaster.com - XYL KM9 Unicorn - Review, Test, & Upgrade 

Would love to know where from or if they are stls available and what kind of mesh he used that is safe enough for competitive play.

Seems even more SPAMFy to me (same wheelhouse anyway). Remove the stock and foregrip, add the top slide, form factor seems quite similar and it's small enough to be a dedicated sidearm.

No wonder it works so well!

the body is nylon. Easy to dye with the typical methods

I love that this blaster has slamfire. Great for rushing

@ValTek Armory ...IT DOES!? ...I never even thought to try...

The barrel also comes glued into the dart gate making it a bit harder to swap out.

@@BradleyPhillipsYT 1) did I just get a comment from Bradley Phillips??? 2) great to know thanks a lot. I assume it can be broken out or melted? 3) I love your videos, your reviewing process is incredibly informative and thorough.

@@LillyValentine252 you could probably use hot water to get the barrel out, when you buy XYL's upgraded 250mm barrel it comes with another dart gate glued on it though.

@@BradleyPhillipsYT alrighty thanks a lot, I look forwards to your review.

They do. Coop demonstrated it in his review. However there's very little incentive to do so as it sets the blaster WAY too high relative to your shoulder.

I've bought from Monkey Mods before. Thanks for the tip!

Yeah i noticed that too, i wonder if that was effecting the fps test on the max darts

There are holes in it? I didn't even notice. Good to know!

Yeah its got a slot in it to lower the fps for the Chinese market laws

Well, if it bothers you, feel free to send me a non-slotted version. Feel free to send the barrel and spring too. I'll happily compare them.

@@CaptainXavier Hahaha! Well, I have one on preorder, so I'll let you know.

...fine. Be that way. Make sense or whatever. ;P

Probably. I doubt it would bee too hard.

An adjustable SCAR barrel would work the best

Amazon

Works fine for me.

I didn't. These were left at an event. I would follow the instructions on the website. Maybe experiment with different heat options until you find one that works. But heat is required.

@@CaptainXavier okay. Thanks for the info

IIRC, you use a hair dryer on high for 10 minutes. But there is a metal version that you dip into boiling water for a few seconds and let dry in the forms.

@@xrp3robot do you leave the dart exposed to the water?

@@sarahthompson9621 From what I saw in the video for the metal forms, you do. You put the dart into the metal tube, dunk it in the boiling water for, like, five seconds at most and then pull it out to drain and dry. And keep in mind, you are doing 100 in a batch, dunking one into the water at a time, not just a handful like with the plastic form

Sounds like a factory dud. They happen.

Cool. ;) I am aware. I am ok with the performance as it meets my needs. I will look into getting a solid plunger tube for testing at some point.

The AF head Styrofoam darts should be similar weight to the max darts. Weight also doesn't seem to affect Styrofoam darts very much at all. People have tried them at .8g and at 1.2g and nothing much has changed. Just more energy is being put in the dart.

The new red and green dart zone x2 bamboos are .85g, so much lighter than usual, but .1g up on their 2nd get that was at .75. Their first Gen bamboos were .95g.

I feel like I've seen barely any attention paid to the Ultra style half darts. Have seen em available and mentioned here and there, but I haven't come across much testing or experience shared. All I really know about the Ultra material is that it's a firmer styrofoamy stuff. Is it perhaps due to no high quality options available (if so)? I dunno if any reputable sources have tried their hand at them.

@@Stevenwave- the only issue is they are HELLA expensive compared to normal darts. Like. Ultra dart levels of expensive. Also they really only like 13mm inner diameter barrels.

@@radioactivesdesigns3554 Right, Right, makes sense. Just checked Zhenduo cause I know I've seen em on there. About $50AUD for 100 of em vs about $40 for 200 bamboo Workers (which are even more than regular ones sfar as I've seen). So in my money, that's 50c each vs 20c. So I get why people haven't taken the plunge to try them out, although if there are serious performance advantages, you'd think they'd be spreading more anyway. Everything the performance side of the hobby does is an expense for the goal of finding better and more efficient stuff. Some expensive blasters, kits and parts out there. Unless the durability is also big turn-off. I haven't bothered Ultraing at all so I dunno if they're the same, worse or better with use. At a guess I'd figure they might take punishment better in some ways, but worse in others. Seems the type of material that won't necessarily wear out in the same manner as foam, but perhaps lose bits in chunks instead. Or a hard enough knock splitting it entirely. Also only come in black that I've seen, so that's likely a turn-off for a lot. Intriguing though. Wonder if the situation will change at all. Costs coming down or they become popular enough for bulk orders to affect that.

You know...I have no idea. I should find out and get one.

Found it! www.workermod.com/product/worker-mod-bamboo-short-darts-three-ring-mold-for-foam-blaster-toy/

@@CaptainXavier I think worker sells darts that are already bamboo'd, but I also don't know where to get those.

@@CaptainXavierThanks for the link! I'm not sure if I'll pick up some right now but I'll keep them in mind

@@CaptainXavier Remember, use a hair drier, not a heat gun as the heat gun will melt foam

Yes, but this one is really small. :D

Wat?

What

Watt?

What?

Whot?

Rude of them.

Which blaster specifically?
