Flight and Shafts Overview 

My advice to anyone looking to get into the dart world and play more then 1-2 times a week, stay away from aluminum and polycarbonate shafts especially in bars with concrete floors. My setup I currently use on my 19gm Paul Lim soft tips is a #3 Fit Flight carbon shaft with a Rocket flight, and on my steel tip 22gm Paul Lim's I use a #2 Fit Flight Carbon shaft with Rocket flights. The reason I push Fit Flight Carbon shafts is because they come in 4's vs 3's. So you have a spare. I have used everything on that table except Accurates new system. L-Style is nice but I went through alot of flights because of the fact I play 6 days a week. Fit seems to last a bit longer for me. For any casual players that wanna get going etc. I would tell you buy Pentathalon HD150 flights and Pro Grip shafts all day. Cheap and pretty durable flights for foldables. Sorry for the long post.

I always thought that if you buy darts and if the shaft was plastic it was garbage. So I bought them with aluminum. Well here we are learning shit has changed even more than just throwing darts. Tungsten and pop on flights. This is serious as hell. Well I learned how quickly aluminum bend when they hit the ground on a bounce out. Or if the dart hits others. So I’m learning. I’m no champ. But I found this video very informative and helpful. Shopping tomorrow for some darts.

I also purchased the Pear shaped Robson Flight, with shorter shafts to change up my arsenal! Package was in my mailbox just now.

Whats really funny when he started talking about plastic shafts..... I bought my first set of darts yesterday. Spent like 60 bucks and they are 26g and they felt really nice...had them for a day and I literally robinhooded one of the darts so Now i need a replacement hahah they were plastic shafts and it was one of the first problems he mentioned about them.... Point taken LOL

Great review. Answered a ton of my questions as an amateur player trying to improve my game.

I group my darts very often and practise on a daily basis. I ordered Target 100 micron ( I believe ) standard 6 Std flights. These things are unbreakable. Trew 1 whole evening with 1 set and they were still as new

The aluminum shafts -- if you can't find a way around bounce outs -- aluminum shafts are great for their durability. I throw in my basement with concrete flooring, and after breaking a good number of plastic shafts I switched to aluminum. They will add weight to your darts (a couple grams, at least the ones I got), and so it can take a minute to get used to them, but they hold up extremely well if you're going through a lot of shafts due to bounce outs. Hopefully the newer board (without the massive spider) I'm getting will help solve that issue a little bit and I can go back to throwing lighter darts. That extra 1-3 grams is definitely noticeable though. And, if you're looking to add a couple grams to your darts without changing the barrel, aluminum shafts could be the way to go.

Thanks for the informative video. I just started shooting again after a thirty year lay-off and I think my darts have an antique set of Dyno-Star for navigation and they never fall off! Go Yankees!

i use aluminum shafts my whole life, they tend to warp and often come loose. I usually use the little baggie that the flights come in and screw the shaft into my dart with the plastic in between. Creates a plastic washer that holds the shaft on better. Good thing is if i robin hood my shaft i can bend it back into place. Currently looking into trying something new after 25+yrs.

I'm new to dart playing and your videos help me pick the board,viper 850.flights robson plus,flight shape,no 6.now I'm gonna look through yours videos about soft tip dart dart choice.thanks

Thanks for the review. I moved to the condor flights, as I was constantly robin hooding the stems, even with rings, and it was very frustrating.. I liked the condor but I found I was getting a lot of deflections and bounce out issues. I then went to Harrows Click and I was using the..for a long time.but the flights rip too easy. The tighter my grouping got the more flights I used until I decide to change to Cosmo. I've liked these the most as they do a strong flight that I have yet to replace. The down side is the shaft breaks easily inside the flight too. I kinda go through stages of getting breaks when the darts bounce out. I'm currently in 2 minds over the Cosmo or the L Style. I like to use standard flights and the L style stops the robin hooding.. which is what I want. I bought the carbon stems and I punch my 100 microns flights and so far, after a month or so.. these are doing the job. I get that the thicker flights hd a good shape 90° and that is good.. but they're heavy and boring.. I like colour/ design on my flights and the L Style offers that. You also see more pros using the L Style now, which also makes me think that they're the way forward 🙈🙈🙈 as if there's not enough to choose from with picking the right dart haha. 😆👌

For the record Fit Flight carbon shafts are more expensive but they include a fourth shaft for a spare instead of just 3. I use nothing but those.

My Favorites are the Harrows Clic. 10 Bucks for a set of flights and shafts are a great bang for the buck. Especially if you like spinning shafts.

I've used the clic system to great effect. The flights are durable and the shafts last forever. The spin and design almost completely eliminates Robin hooding but, if it's not your thing you can lock them out. I do plan to try the Robinson's too. The prices he quotes are store and, American net prices. I buy from UK. sites for 50% and less on most supplies including darts. They have arrived within 5 days. It leaves me more loot for beer. I like darts corner in particular.

I use aluminium because they last longer than plastic. Aluminium stems can bend when they fall on a hard surface but they can be bent back into shape.

red dragon nitro tech hybrid shafts are awesome .best of both worlds. poly shaft with ally top, dont ever come loose. robson flights dont come off,can be used with any stem and no robin hoods. they are also quite durable . if you use tapered points they will help your flights last longer .

A man just received my package from you! Thanks for the great service &kickass patch!!

My accuracy has gotten better on Bulls Eye, because of the Standard Robson Flights, I recently purchased Thanks.

The only good thing I find is if you robin hood a aluminium shaft you can just squeeze them back together same if they become a bit lose over time so they last much longer if your ok.

I'm just getting into the game of darts I bought my first set today and I'm looking to get some information on how to use the flight protectors I can't find any like videos or anything can you help me out as a new person to the game of darts any help can would be appreciated thank you

Was excited to get my Harrows Clics today. Within a half hour I had Robin Hooded one and tore the shit out of the flight! Needless to say I'm F'n pissed!!!

soft tips come in different colors, what it anything do the different colors stand for. Soft to hard?

I'm comfortable with 19 grams steel tip, and currently using aluminum shafts..are you recommending I should switch to the Poly shafts? I really want to try the Robson flight system 🙄

what a fantastic video. im getting back in to darts; i never got into all the particulars like this but i am now! man, thanks for this content

Where can I buy those kind of snapback cap that you are wearing

Some awesome looking stems and flights there, would love to try some of them

I'm curious to your thoughts about Short and Long tip soft darts.. What is the Pro's & Con's of them? What do you like and why ? etc. etc.

My man is thirsty, do love the video though. Very informative

what type of flights do you like best spinners or normal style

hey there, I've been playing darts recreational for a few years. only recently getting a serious about trying to raise my skill. i have only played with foldable flights thus far. the constant need to adjust and fix the angles and whatnot is quite annoying. do you have any suggestions on a particular brand of rigid flights? I'd also like to add that i prefer aluminum shafts.

Hi I'm Jamie I follow dynamite Dave just watching your videos and finding them exciting aswell 👍

I have had so many problems with fit flights they always brake after 5 games.

Heads up the accurate dart link seems to be a suspicious website now, might want to check the links in the description

My name is Marcus Craig king from Pembrokeshire south west wales in Haverfordwest I love darts

Soft tip replacement tips recommendations?

Aluminum is the way to go. Prolly breaks if they hit the ground

I just started really getting into darts recently and I’m looking to get my first set of nicer higher end darts for soft and steel tip. Do you have any recommendations or do you have any videos that talk about this??

Great review m8 I've tinkered with a few different combos now I'm now tied between the Robson + kites and lstyle Slim and champagne kites

Aluminium are good! But thru time it bends lol

Thanks for your video.

love that ball hat. where did you get it?

I'm new to dart's , are all shafts universal fitting ?

I subscribed when you were on Debrajoy!

New subscriber. Appreciate the time and investment you make to help others improve their game. I did the same with Foosball in Houston. Feedback. Please zoom in on such product videos like this. I feel I need to go to another channel to really get to know the system better. This video is great as it touches on all but I really don’t get that first hand experience a closeup shot provides. We are more interested in the product in hand and don’t need a full shot of the wonderful dart cave. Nice place. Enjoy. I’ll come back.

I think the normal foldable flights are looked down on although they can be very good for advanced players too. Im using red dragons cross fire carbon-nylon stems which are quite light and very durable. Im not an exceptional player, only averaging around 50-60 but i do play quite a lot. A good quality 100micron foldable flight from winmau (currently using the prism delta designs which are kinda modern/minimal geometrical designs in one colour)can hold up for weeks easily. Also the flights poppin off issue is easy to avoid if you punch your flights and apply rings similar to how l style flights have holes and caps/champagnerings in. L style is a very good system too but i find that for players who like to experiment and vary their setups, normal nylon/carbon stems and punched flights are a very good option.

do you have a video on how to use dart wrench and or how to install flight without smashing

Love my Condors

I wants to know how to put ur flights on the right side of whimlets darts

When r u getting the same hat ur wearing in stock??

How can i have your same cap that you have🙏🙏🙏

Hey where did you get that sick hat bro?

18:35 it's the same thing lol. We just pronounce Aluminum differently

you didnt mention CUESOUL

Great vid

You keep saying polymer. A polymer can be any plastic or nylon. Saying they're made polymer doesn't help much when describing the material.

I see that Chiefs helmet.. KC local?

I just subscribe to your channel

Where can I get that hat?!?!

Do more darts review haha like you're video

Cosmo fit flights! For steel tip.. whatever the f you want for soft tip it will last forever

You don't seem to want flights to come off. I thought the idea was for them to come off so they don't deflect as bad, or get jing up between your first two darts? You didn't mention Slik Stiks. I'm really surprised, as i thought they were very popular.

Just started exploring non foldable flights. Harrows clic was simple and reliable Accurate broke the first time I threw it (simple bounce out) played another game another one broke on a Robin Hood and the last one (off three) broke on pull out (yeah, I pulled on the shaft-flight). All the flights the threading broke off inside the shaft🤨

I like aluminum surprisingly

Aluminum shafts last a long time I have a pair on my Darts and I play every day in Robin Hood plenty of times three years I tried a poly plastic shelves they broke in the week I can’t Robin Hood

I'am 62 I Been playing Dart's all my life Don't belive everything you read . I play with steel shafts and the ones I use is they titednen your flights in place..I won many darts tournaments . Replace your flights every two months if you play a lot.

Zoom sir

Insignia

keep away from those cosmo fit flights,, they are shit,, unless you can play darts without letting them touch, otherwise they tear up real quick

lol it's not made from aluminum it's something different, aluminium to funny, sorry ;)
