#363302 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by Summer on 22 August 2018 - 03:11 PM in Modifications

Ive disappeared for a while and have more to share.
This is my recon mk2 that I used a cool spray paint hydrodip method to accomplish the paintjob.
I call it the -Apollo 3-
No internal mods. It works fine for me, and Id think I would mess up the ar anyways. 049DE59C-36FC-4B07-A359-39BA84766492.jpeg

#363087 Getting whirly bird darts after mod

Posted by Summer on 12 June 2018 - 04:30 PM in Modifications

Im no expert, but have you checked for any possible impurities on the flywheels? Or that they could be crooked? Just some thoughts.

~~This blaster needs no introduction~~

Maybe...

Anyways, this is the finished product of my painted and modded nerf Stryfe.
This blaster has been painted in a scorched look and Ive added the worker Kriss Vector kit to it.

Pretty darn cool. If I say so myself.

Ive added an expanded battery door to the blaster so the batteries stay in the tray...
image.jpg
Ive added the door so the Ultrafire 18650 5000mah l-ion batteries would fit.
Nails were used to make the positive sides of the batteries to touch the contacts.

A re-painted modulus
Stock motors and a rewire
And I removed the handle so now you can actually aim down it.

And Ive added this DIY iron sight.
This time I decided to use some acrylic paint to give the white texture.

#362491 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by Summer on 07 February 2018 - 05:02 PM in Modifications

~Update~

The winter forest Rayven is now modded to run on Ultrafire batteries
image.jpg
It uses two Ultrafire 18650 rechargeable Li-ion 3.7v 4200mah batteries.
image.jpg
Since the batteries are bigger, there is a bit of a bend in the battery tray, but it keeps them in place.
image.jpg
A hole was made to make room for two contacts on either side for the batteries to touch and deliver that power.
image.jpg
Adding those batteries gives the blaster a great boost, and the darts actually leave the barrel.
It adds a shorter rev time and more power to the darts leaving the barrel.


You all probably hate me now for using those batteries, right?



#362466 Do Tamiya motors work better if the batteries are in Parallel?

Posted by Summer on 04 February 2018 - 10:34 AM in Modifications

Hello all.

 

I have recently ordered some Tamiya Torque tuned Motors, and I was reading up on them and found out that they require 3v and require 3-6 amps each/

I was wondering if I'm using AAs, is wiring up two AAs in parallel enough amperage for the motors?

~~~The Night Sky~~~ stryfe
I decided to repaint this stryfe repaint that I did a long time ago
It was supposed to be the Elite XD stryfe but I never liked the look of it.

Here are the internals with stock motors and a rewire that I did a while ago.

And heres the internals now with an LED wired to the jam door switch.

#362306 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by Summer on 21 January 2018 - 10:05 PM in Modifications

My painted DoubleStrike. I decided to keep the handle part unpainted and leave the pho wrap around the handle because I dont mind having it there. Ive also added a hot glue spring spacer, and it shoots harder more now than it did before. It actually hurts to get shot with it.

Every primary needs a pistol to match with it.

Ive modded my tri-strike to make it pump action. Id say the paint job is Distant Stars.
This is the two halves of the shells drying.
DC9AA981-25E8-48C5-A70F-3FB28CC781AA.jpeg
The bolt sled was modified with spacers, they were just hammered down into the slot where the bolt used to go. The spacers were cut down, and since they werent tapped all the way through, I re-tapped them.270F6021-318B-4D9F-A0EA-945C1054827A.jpeg
And the finished product.

The Tri-Strike name has paint surrounding it to make it look like a comet, of sorts.

And heres the pump action grip, made out of plexiglass so you can see the paint job underneath.

#362279 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by Summer on 17 January 2018 - 02:24 PM in Modifications

Hello, all! This is my modified stockade, which may be a first, the way its been modded.image.jpg
It has an integrated modulus rev trigger, and the stock switch (to rev the motors) is now used as a safety switch, switching it on allows the user to rev, switched off, you cant rev.
It does still house the pancake motors (bleh) because I havent found a way to get to them yet.

Posted by Summer on 15 January 2018 - 11:56 AM in Modifications

This is my scorched Nerf stryfe with worker parts to look like a Scar PDW.
The motors were replaced with the rapidstrike motors, and it still runs on the stock battery tray and AAs.
