Was super fun, hope to see you guys again in August.

There is a war in Mississauga going on on June 19, for NIC though. Check the war forums for a post called "vengeance" something war. It was posted by skullface44. Hope to see you there!

Very nice. First time I have seen this so I will have to try it!

Use packing tape instead of e-tape, and use a way smaller barrel, like 5mm or 6mm brass if it is available to you.

Can't wait for the second one!

Use the eBay motors linked above and run them on a 2s LiPo. Look up "Bobolobo Meishel motor stryfe" And you will see why eBay motors linked above reign supreme

I don't live in North Carolina, but if I did I would be wondering what day it would be on lol.

I am also wondering if you need to replace the rev switch.

I have done many transactions with people on here in the past, but lately there has been a bunch of people wanting to buy stuff and they want me to send them the blaster and then they pay because they can not find any feedback about me. That's not how I do business. So if I have had a transaction with you in the past could you please post some feedback in the buyer seller feedback thread here: http://nerfhaven.com...showtopic=11550

Thanks

I will buy the RS and brass from you before you ship it. If the stuff comes as you say it is I will leave a good review on the BS feedback thread.

I don't think you can remove your account.

I would love to see a write-up on this.

You could make a brass breech or you could make one of these if you are willing to sacrifice clip-fed abilities for increased range: http://nerfhaven.com...topic=18711&hl=

3/0 glue domes are fine, as long as they are made properly and out of decent foam. If they are made poorly to the point that they are flying apart in the air or the foam is so bad that the 3/0 wight flys out I will as the person to put them away. 3/0s inside of a dart are pretty harmless but when they leave the dart in mid flight they can do serious damage. I have shot a 3/0 weight out of a big blast and it went though 1/4 inch wood



Yes, that is correct

The hype is building up for this shin-dig

Are you trying to hate on the Rolling Stones here?! (Paint It Black is a song, ya dingus!)

Both of those listings are out of stock, and we have talked to that seller and they cannot get more. The only 180 motor I'd recommend for 3s would be the FK-180sh-3240, and the only way I know of to currently buy that is here: http://www.amain.com...-eflh1210/p9391 and you need to pry the gear off and desolder all that other junk they put on it. Note, running that motor on 3s over 2s barely improves performance but causes more wear on the motors. Why are you so hung up on 3s? It would be cheaper to buy a new battery and get the 2s motors I linked earlier.

Me and Mont just both ordered the Meishel motors. Thanks for helping me out in my selection. I will be running the Meishels on 2 IMRs.

I think I will mention "Clips" to the host of The Mississauga Massacre! It strikes a great balance between simple and interesting.

Double Post.

Falcon Motors are the only motors I'd recommend running on 3s, but they're pretty much extint right now. I've been trying to order 50 of them for a project, and I can't find them anywhere. All the Aliexpress links for them say they're out of stock a few days after I place an order and they refund me.

Falcon Motors actually yield less FPS than Meishel motors (the ebay ones I linked above) by a very small margin, but spin up SLIGHTLY faster (like .05 of a second faster). The only reason I used falcon motors in my hailfire was because I did not want to have to have two different voltage motors in the blaster since I planned to run the blade motors at 3s. I use the Meishel motors in 90% of my flywheel blasters and they work great. If you ask about them on reddit (where they were nicknamed for my discovery, lol), you'll get more than a few people singing their praises.

Until Blades or Falcons show up again on the market, or people find some new motor and properly test them so the community can actually see they're good (Instead of the whole "I JUST PUT THESE IN MY STRYFE AND THEY'RE SO LOUD BRAH!" approach some people take), Meishel motors are the best option outside of high end slot car motors, xtreme 180s, or some custom solution.

Thanks for the awesome quotes bro. I think I have sealed the deal on what to buy, but I need a bit of clarification. Which one of these 180 motors would you recommend? These motors or http://www.ebay.com/...r/121490241100T these motors: http://www.ebay.com/...-/111574072018? The only difference is 3V as opposed 6-12V, and I want to run 3S, so which ones should I use?

Do you have any spec sheets, chrono data, or reliability info on those motors? Many of the helicopter motors that are being sold do not play well with our hobby when run at the RPMs required to be an improvement over stock motors. Some of them use metal brushes instead of carbon brushes and will suffer the same fate as RM2s. Some of them use carbon brushes but have terrible quality control, and the brushes fall apart in the motor or come DOA.



Those motors are metal brushed motors and will suffer from the same early death that RM2s will under heavy use at higher voltages. Ebay borked and showed me some weird motor. Ignore this. My bad. I bought from that same listing.

OP: These are verified good motors by myself. I linked chrono data on your last post, and since then have continued using them with no failures other than the pair I tried to run at 3s. If you want to get really fancy, you can run some xtreme 180's, but they might be over your $30 price tag depending on if they're on sale or not. If you can find someone with some Falcon motors, those are good as well (although in my tests they chrono 3-5 FPS lower than the ones I just linked). 180 motors are pretty overkill for most nerfers when compared to falcons or the ebay motors I linked. The ones I linked spin up to full revs in under half a second. The only benefit you get from 180's would be higher torque to spin up a little quicker. The best motors for the value were the FK-180sh-3240's but they are pretty much extinct now. Some places are selling models with the same number, but they are counterfeit/imitation and don't meet the same specs or have metal brushes (Unless something has popped up in the last 2 weeks). Trust me, I've been looking like crazy to try and source some.

Feel free to take what I'm telling you with a grain of salt. Hell, feel free to buy whatever you want. However, you might want to look for something that has proven chrono data and reliability records since that's what you indicated in your post that you're looking for. I am not the one selling those motors, I don't get a kickback on them, I have no vested interest in them. I'm just trying to get people to stop wasting their money on sub-par motors.

I liked the motors you recommended for a 2S lipo, but which motor(s) would you recommend for a Stryfe running on a 3S Lipo? I am also very open to cutting the shell.

Okay, first of all, since you are in Canada check this war out and state if you will be coming: http://nerfhaven.com...showtopic=26140 As for the motors, something similar to this: http://www.ebay.ca/i...2-/181733619210 will do just fine, and you can scale up or down a few dollars depending on your price range.

The Cycloneshock has a 6 dart cylinder whereas the Hammershot is a 5 dart cylinder.

Without crafting an entirely new rotation mech I doubt it's possible to get it to function.

In short, just stick some CPVC into the Cycloneshock barrels.

Agreed. This would be the easiest way, as to replace the Cycloneshock barrel you would need a Dremel, and new modders generally don't have Dremels.

I'll be willing to pitch in to cover a possible permit!

I actually use some E-Tape on the bolt sled of my Retaliator and rampage to prevent any air from escaping the plunger assembly. This is a cool alternative, and I will definitely try it out!

As long as you plan ahead quite a bit, I'd love to Nerf me some Canucks again one weekend. I've played enough in the area, I might be able to help, at least in terms of knowing things about when/where/how.

If you have any ideas on possible locations it would be greatly appreciated if you could suggest some.
Thanks, Condorboy.

Me and Skullface44 are thinking of setting up a Nerf war in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) on either July the 25th or 26th (2015) to fill the void of Forsaken angel24's Nerf wars. Skullface44 has been given the OK from Forsaken angel24 to do this. We are conferencing with Forsaken angel24 to decide on a location, but we are always open to suggestions.
