This thing is a marvel of miniaturization, and I couldn't wait to share this with you all. Don't worry, the other videos we have been teasing are coming soon in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned!
Cool Pew Pew, would like to buy a Kestrel from your store thou. I think selling the Pew Pew without the custom electronics would make it more affordable or make it an option. It may need some vent holes on the side to cool the motors.
I love the text throughout. So fun. If you could play a quick pop up sound when it shows it'd be even better. A lot of times I miss it because I'm multitasking.
U should do reviews on dart blasters that u sell upgrades, additions to. A comprehensive guide of what work with what so people know what will work guide people in what to buy from u and what blasters u should get that u can upgrade.
I've been talking with the creator as well, and he says he is looking into licensing some sellers around the world. I am going to wait until the US retailer is ready before I order one, but I would love that retailer to be you!
@@jacobbednar861 I believe Drac/Walcom said it was something over $400 USD. This is a higher featured blaster than the FDL in a smaller package and the bill of materials has to be a couple hundred on its own.
@@jalopy2472 no. This is a solenoid powered pusher and probably a modified solenoid itself. Nothing on the market with a solenoid usually touches less than $300 for Sale (and that's if they're giving you their labor for basically free)
It's one of those blasters that i'd love to borrow and try for a little while at a game but i don't think i could ever justify buying because of the really high cost. It truly is amazing though.
Me: Man this looks amazing, maybe I'll get one for Christmas Luke: It's $500 Me: ...dang it TBF the engineering on this looks amazing, so the price is probably completely warranted.
The solenoid is likely based on an FJ-Z05. They're pretty gutless until you modify them though, and I strongly suspect this is running a different spring, and a rewound coil. I use those in Velcro/Mackrel, and they have been used by others on a couple of one-off mods over the last year or so. My guess on the crush is around 6.5 - 7.5mm (root to root) with an 11mm profile - i.e. the classic ultra-high crush football as opposed to a hycon style.. But yeah, welcome to the good side of brushless.. Once you've played with an ultra-light open-loop setup, or any closed loop setup, you can never go back to something like an fdl.
I'd guess the short stroke solenoid only works reliably because of the small flywheels. If you have 34 mm wheels, the dart has to travel 17 mm just to get to the middle of the wheels, after passing through the thickness of the magwell, dart guide, flywheel cage walls, etc. If your wheels are only 16 mm in diameter, then there's only 8 mm between the edge of the wheel and the center.
I'd love to see this on the shop! If the price was reasonable enough I might even pick up a couple! If I were to take a guess I would say he probably charges $350ish? Maybe more cause those are a tad bigger than my drones motors at $10 so I figure $20 for each motor, variable price for the Arduino cause chip shortage, and all the r and d that this guy did deserves a lot of $$. Nice blaster!!! Inspiring me to build my own with some drone motors I have laying around. It would be interesting to see if my 802s or 1103s could drive some flywheels!
OMG. It's my dream blaster. And since I live in Europe, maybe ordering from him could come in slightly cheaper than it did for you... I might try and contact him someday soon, if I save up for a bit
From what I’ve seen when it’s run at max settings (not including hidden menu), full auto by default will shoot about 10 rounds before shutting off to reduce the risk of parts being damaged or melting
That's a misinformation. There's a magcap-setting in the advanced menu. It is set to 16 by default. After this amount of darts shot, PewPew will stop firing. It can be set to whatever you want. For example 18 (overloaded talon) 29 (tachi), or even 0 for unlimited firing.
I would love to see this on your shop. Probably wouldn't buy one unless the price could be lowered but it would definitely increase the chances I get to see one at a game.
Ouch! No joke on the price lol. but absolutely incredible blaster. If you could license them and hopefully make them a bit more affordable they’d definitely sell.
I would DEFINITELY want to see this bad boy on the OOD shop. As soon as I saw Walcom show his Pew Pew off on his IG, I knew I had to have one. $500 definitely a pretty penny, but I’m sure it’s worth it given how Nerfers have been raving about it.
You know whats so cool about 3D printing? Everything that you print or create on a file thats shared on the internet, Never goes away so this means there are always more and more things to print and it never goes away it always get stacked most things never gets deleted commonly speaking because the 3D printing industry is always getting updated like this and if these things get updated, the whole world gets updated, i feel like we're in the early stages of 3D printing in the world, like once society was in the early stages of the internet, i wonder what else could be made possible, probably a whole new computer like universe made for VR glasses, if we make those things our world changes in the process aswell, hopefully in a good way, to bad there's people that copywrite their models and only release them for cash, its probably not going to last, it only holds the majority and the 3D printing world back when you wouldn't put those online for free, there once was music you needed to buy on CD, now its for free, even some games are free now, its only a matter of time where all of these models are for free on the internet,life is expansive enough and this should still be considered as a nice hobby so put those things on the internet for free please like its supposed to be, you could always put your label,name, initials on the print like a real artist, unfollowed by Greed.
As a person that is still beginning to get into the hobby; the sticker shock of that thing is insane, though. I'd happily buy something like that, but the highest I'd go is probably $150 to $200 - and even that's still stretching it. That's definitely not built to be a kid's toy, though. Any kid 13 and under would burn that thing out in no time because they'd stick to full auto all day, everyday.
My recommendation to get started: stick to used blasters and cheap mods. Try to find a used stryfe, printed flywheelcage and basic motors (foamblast or ood). Find out what you like and try whatever blaster you can get your hands on at local games. The first printed blaster you build should be a talon claw from captain slug, because they are an absolute joy and very well documented, but you don't need that to start out.
Unfortunately 200 bucks isn't going to cut it. Build a select-fire ultrastryfe, and once you've gotten used to how difficult it can be, then consider that something functionally equivalent that is half the size is at least 4 times more complex.
@@AirzonesBlasters 200 bucks for a beginner would be still be too steep. You'd want people to GET into the hobby without sticker shock. The other gentleman that replied - Milan - had the best advice. You only start shelling out more money once you're already heavily invested into the hobby, and not as a newbie coming in. It's why some Nerf-RU-vidrs here would initially suggest things like the Nexus Pro as a good starting point - it's ready to go out of the box without tweaking it without being ultra expensive.
@@obsidiansands Milan pointed out the obvious alternative. I'm pointing out why they cost what they do. Ultrastryfe will get you close to this blasters capability and will probably cost you around $150-200 or so to make - depending on the bits you use.
@@AirzonesBlasters I agree .. the most stressful part about being a Creator is the fact that most people really don't know what all goes into building a blaster that intricate and in a tiny package
its so rare to see proper innovation, this is really cool. I like nerf because you can kind of just play whenever, I also do airsoft and paintball but both are messy and you need a field for it or a large private property, but im always a bit disapointed with most blasters since they are just more of a play thing. this is a step in the right direction along with the cool AEG rifles coming out. it would be amazing to see a flywheeler like this with the bearing scar barrel which works for flywheelers, just want more high performance stuff that shoots at high fps, high accuracy, reliable and easy to reload on field
I really really really want to purchase one of these. To bad they aren't taking more orders. I will buy one the sec it's available. Looks like so much fun.
God damn, literally everything I've ever wanted. Five HUNDRED dollars tho, that's nuts. I hope he gets shells made and produces it on a larger scale. I'd pay 350, solid.
Dream micro flywheel pistol! Definitely Make it available in a few price points and it will bring you and Pewtech joint newfound success. That should be used instead of FDL at FPT 2022 invitational Luke - seriously MK-II has nothing on it - sorry Dart Zone ;-)
Sorry bit of a noob here, how on earth does he get that beautiful checkered printed pattern on that blue case? I can’t find anything about this anywhere. Also, where was this printed, Prusa mk3s?
The surface comes from printing on a sheet of foil or high temp plastic with that relief pattern on it. When the first layer sticks to it, the pattern is transferred. I believe Maker's Muse has a video on the process if you want to know more.
@@outofdarts it probably wouldn't be a hard mod to do, just solder the wires to the power pins on the USB C and run them down to the battery then you would avoid putting to much power to the board
@@legitgibbo3225 probably not. But in practice you really want to charge the LiPo in a LiPo safe, and away from any blasters you don't want destroyed in the case of fire.
@@legitgibbo3225 Nah dude, you need to build a 3s balance charger small enough to fit in to near zero volume lol. And these small blasters can be real hard on their packs... So it's prudent to charge away from the blaster, as OOD say...
This is how you make an amazing blaster for 500 bucks! One with proper print and build quality, unlike some other people who pretend to justify their 500 dollar caliburn.
