This video represents more editing than any other mod guide before with tons of thought put into how best to introduce electronic modifications to new nerfers. A kind comment and a thumbs up goes a long way even if you didn't need any help.
Drac like what the hell, I've literally just spent hours the last 2 days planning a Stryfe build. watching the make test battle vid and walcom S7 vids using the worker flywheel cage.
One day as I was finishing a particularly long COD zombies game with some of my buddies.. my four year old son came up to me and said hey dad can we play zombies? I said sorry buddy it’s too scary and violent. He said no dad. I mean outside. Together. I smiled and said sure buddy, what gun do I get? He handed me a fish shaped super soaker pistol. Then he racked the Walmart rifle I had gotten him for Christmas, you know the one. It looks like a repeater and makes noise... and my dad brain was looking at this boring fish gun thinking man there has to be a better way...That was five years ago. And I have built and modified 10 nerf blasters since then. And I always come here first and every week to check the news and see how the king does it. Thank you Drac for everything you do for the “sport” you have helped me so much over the years. Keep up the good work.
Then he absolutely dominates his kid in every nerf war ever. ........ VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV *OP stryfe noises* The kid: *screaming* The dad: mwahahaa pft pft pft pft pft pft *stryfe shooting really fast* *reloads with 30 round drum mag* the kid: ....
never thought I would START a nerf addiction in my 30s but here I am, and as with anything, like the rest of us, I cannot leave it alone. thanks for the info, even if that cage is top dollar.
Do you have to solder the wires? If not what safe and reliable ways could be done to connect the wires? What’s a good 2s lipo for this stryfe mod? Do you need a flywheel cage when upgrading flywheel, motor, switch, and wires?
@@dinh6327 yes you have to solder (please learn don't get yourself hurt), it's not hard, look up a couple tutorials on TH-cam and get a nice soldering iron and some flux
I have made many a stryfe as well, and this video (A to date comprehensive stryfe mod and internals guide) is something the hobby has needed for a while. Thank You :)
I've loved nerf for a long time and have been looking or a video like this for a long time. However, all the people I've seen dont treat it with the same responsiblity and enthusiasm that you have here, and I really appreciate it.
The best Stryfe mod vid I've seen. Most others completely skip which battery they use instead just say they used a LiPo. This actually showed screngrabs of product pages and options @16:15 mission accomplished.
Always great to see updated mod guides, so thanks Drac! Very useful to new people, especially due to Hasbro's recent (or more frequently widespread than before) use of reskins and reshells.
I think that this, in conjunction with the MTB video is a great way on how to make a solid stryfe build. Some things like the ability to use the stock flywheel cage and a 3s battery is nice in the MTB video, but you also have a better soldering technique and demonstrate newer techniques that have developed in our hobby, like the switch plate and aftermarket cages. Good job, nice work, keep it up!
Peace..I just Thrifted my First Stryfe ( The OJ ) for $4 yesterday. I'm looking forward to it being my first Mod. Thank you for all of the Guides, Reviews and everything else that you have done for the community Drac.. You are greatly appreciated!!!!!!!
Thanks! I think I'm you're target with this vid. I've never soldered a wire in my life but I"m pretty mechanically inclined and can follow instruction. I'll be watching a few soldering tutorials and then I'll give this a try. Thank you for taking the time to do this. Its already been very useful for me!.
Simple and clear, just what a beginer needs, what low budget cage do you recommend ? 'cause the nyx is maybe too much for someone modding for the first time ..
Totally new to this. As far as content production quality you are in your own "Top Tier", dude! Great visuals and audio, excellent vocabulary. You're articulate beyond most of the TH-cam content I have watched in the last three years. Well done!
Thanks for this video! I came into nerf modding thinking that it was going to be super omplicated, but this video simplified it so well. 11/10 would reccomend
THANK YOU! I needed this after being out of modding for a while. I just needed to learn. Thank you for modding one of my favorite guns and reintroducing me to the platform.
Thanks lord drac! Just used this vid to mod my first stryfe! I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this. You saved my a$$ my kit came with no instructions. I will be joining your patreon as your vids have helped me immensely
If I may suggest, maybe a short like 5 video playlist on basics? That way you can gain the knowledge all from one easy to find spot, while still allowing you to upload as normal in between the tutorials
As always, a great video. I am getting ready to mod my Stryfe in the new year and appreciate an updated guide with relevant products listed. I too would love to get a full definition of your tier system for blaster mods so I can properly classify and understand what the various moders on YouTune are talking about.
Here is what I have told a few other asking in the comments hope it helps, so a tier 0 is a Stryfe using the best of the parts money can buy, it can cost $250-$300, it also has things like lights, kits, hyrdodip. Tier 1 has some 3dprinted stuff (Cage, switch holder, levers, etc) it has the more moderate priced stuff, will cost about $100-$200. Tier 3 is usually a motor and wire swap using trustfire batteries, will cost about $20. This is justa quick walkthrough of the most important stuff, all this can vary from person to person.
I bought the needed parts from foamblast at ragnaroktoberfest and this vid got me to finally commit to doing the project of my first flywheel rewire. My stryfe is now a 3S beast! Thank you so much for doing this!
Thanks for the video guide!! This helped me because I have a faulty stryfe that just needs to be modified!! Hope to see more like this in the future!!!👍
This was super helpful. Thank you so much for making this my modulus stryfe should be shipping right now and I am going to mod it. The only thing is I am budget tight so I will only be replacing the motors, maybe in the future I'll do the wheels and cage. Thanks again Drac
I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THIS!!! I have been modding and painting springers for a long time, creating such legends (that I know you’ve never heard of) as Son of Kish, Redeemer of Jerusalem, and more! I’ve been wanting to get into modding flywheel blasters for a year and a half, and have been doing research for just as long, but I had trouble finding the materials I’d need to follow the MTB guide, even though the instructions for the actual mod for super simple. Now that this is available, working with fluwheel blasters is far less daunting for the homework ridden sixteen year old and I hope to build a few sleeper stryfes until I’m good enough to make a personal Tier1 stryfe that follows my typical aesthetic and is worthy of a name derived from Scripture!
As many stryfe builds as I’ve seen on this channel, I have more than enough reason to trust your guide, and will definitely show this to a friend of mine and tell him why he needs a stryfe lol. I’ve always wondered how you make these things so beastly and I am now happy to see how simple it really is with the right know-how.... and the right tools lol. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this guide, and for continually bringing us content in this great hobby, as always I look forward to seeing more content! Also #teamred lol
i feel like in a way this was a lot of advertisement for the products he designed, but honestly no hate towards that i get its better from a business standpoint and it’s a helpful way to get people into this sort of thing by giving them something that is designed by someone they look up to so they know it’ll be good, very clever way of advertising in my opinion.
"Nerf is a Sport.Period." It is a sport and it annoys me that in so many countries people don´t see it as one. In the U.S.A I believe it is very well integrated, but not everywhere around the world.
Nerf is SPORT and a hobby! Great building tips. With switches I find it is easier to mount them using a screw port on the switch to a trimmed down screw port on the shell with a dab of glue, no need to buy/print plates or more (they do however save you a bit of time)!
I really want to start modifying my blasters and now I can because your video was easy to follow and I can trust you cause of all the stryfe’s you have made thank you DRAC
#TiersCauseTears Anyways, (extensive Nyx Cage self advertising aside) it was definitely a lot better than your usual guides. There were a fair amount of things you missed. Correctly choosing a suitable battery for your motors, is _very_ important. I can’t believe you skipped this. I would recommend watching foamblasts battery guide (not you Drac) to learn how to do that. You didn’t talk about basic lipo safety _at all_ which is something everyone should learn before they even touch a lipo. Captain Xavier has a great video on that. You also didn’t talk about 3s motors, which I feel you should have. You didn’t mention lipo alarms or volt meters either, which I would say are fairly nessisary for safety. (Well, the Alarms are, voltmeters not as much) You also didn’t mention how to solder in a different connector (deans to Xt60) for example) (which can be dangerous if not done correctly) You didn’t mention what charger to use either, which is another common question people ask who have never used a lipo before. The accucell S60 (sold on hobby king and by out of darts) has all the nessisary features while not being terribly expensive. That’s all I can think of for now.
Also, Loctite usually recommended for the motor screws. And usually advised to test with a lower power pack such as 4 X AA batteries before running off a lipo
I feel like a dedicated battery mating and modding and charging video may be in order for the future but at 17 minutes, this was heavy enough that youtube will bury it already. Thanks for the feedback
@@LightningEagle14 It's actually interesting how few(practically zero) videos by any in the world of modding Nerf or even airsoft go into lipo safety. I didn't realize how dangerous they can be until I started researching wiring electrical components and such and coming across a drone website that went into very in depth details regarding every aspect of lipo batteries.
I think the only thing I would seriously recommend that wasn't here is either a voltmeter or a low-voltage alarm. Drac does cover this in his other stryfe build videos. You will regret not doing this. Lipos cannot go below a certain voltage without destroying themselves and becoming dangerous to recharge. This is a mod video, not a lipo video, so I would also add it is critical you do a ton of research on Lipo safety. Pair this with a Lipo video. And maybe consider using a Mosfet instead of a high amp switch. It offers some advantages. You might also consider adding dean connectors or xt-60s between the motors and the rest of the wiring harness. If you combine that practice with a mosfet, it becomes a non-issue to change motors or add an afterburner. It helps with the idea that your modded blaster is always a work in progress you will continue to fiddle with. People like drac have the resources to just keep making new ones, but you will probably be upgrading your baby for years.
i might be late for a reply, but some brand, like duracell, have a lithium grade that are more powerful but the pack is also more expensive. if you want lipo rechargeable batteries, the 14500 type are the exact same size as the regular AA.
Delrin IS acetal. POM (polyoxymethylene) is a plastic made by many companies using slightly different formulas but they all do the same thing. It works well. Delrin is acetal and the chemical name for acetal is polyoxymethylene. The only thing is though, it's designed to be a low friction material. Once you have a layer of foam on the wheels this isn't an issue, but I think the community should look into different plastics to see if there is a better option.
Okay I am super new (like 4 months) to modding nerf blasters, and I was wanting to power up my stryfe like this and also put in the worker full auto kit, and I have no idea if I can do this and put in that kit. If anybody smart could tell me you’d be a life saver. Thanks for the helpful video too drac!
Thanks for the info I was having trouble today with my build. My cage wasn't fitting was getting frustrated looking for parts i needed to get it done. Infos very helpful.
Great Stryfe guide Drac! I did see you were stabilising your product shots there (Nyx cage etc) If you wanna do some slow mo B-roll footage then invest in a lazy susan with a simple egg timer mod for turning it or purchase a small 4-wheel camera dolly. Produces the same effect without the use if stabilizing. Quite cheap too!
I don't even have nerf gun but watching your vids, makes me want to buy one just to mod them. What do you think of making a stryfe painted like a 40k bolt gun ?
If you don’t want to spend money on the new flywheels stuff antother great way to increase performance (not as much than if you use this tutorial) you can keep the stock fly wheel and remove the paddles of the fly wheel ( the pieces the dart has to push through to get into the fly wheel) also makes for almost no jams
Hi! I bought the battery you linked but it doesn't fit =O It's slightly too fat to close the battery door, even with every bit removed from the compartment and lid.
Ok, so a tier 0 is a Stryfe using the best of the parts money can buy, it can cost $250-$300, it also has things like lights, kits, hyrdodip. Tier 1 has some 3dprinted stuff (Cage, switch holder, levers, etc) it has the more moderate priced stuff, will cost about $100-$200. Tier 3 is usually a motor and wire swap using trustfire batteries, will cost about $20. This is justa quick walkthrough of the most important stuff, all this can vary from person to person.
I haven't been with this community for a long time. WHAT IN THE HELL In all reality, it's not that bad. A lot of websites have custom shells, and there are plenty of Chinese knockoff shells that are just as good, if you are going to mod your blaster. They've been around for so long that we're completely self-reliant
@@coilovercat yep im getting a used yellow and blue stryfe off kijiji for 35 cad for both. Pretty good deal, want that blue one instead of the modulus one though. It comes with some pretty bad accessories tbh
This video represents more editing than any other mod guide before with tons of thought put into how best to introduce electronic modifications to new nerfers. A kind comment and a thumbs up goes a long way even if you didn't need any help.
Awesome video! The editing was amazing! I loved the variety of options you showed as well as how to properly use each!

That Cage costs 100 dollars

This video deserves a like, the time that you’ve put in is amazing but was certainly necessary
I guess you of all people would know how to do this, seeing as how you’ve done about 500 stryfe mods.

"Nerf is a Sport.Period."
It is a sport and it annoys me that in so many countries people don´t see it as one.
In the U.S.A I believe it is very well integrated, but not everywhere around the world.

Yeah im quite jealous as I live in Norway 🇳🇴 where they are no nerf games
Super solid build guide for any new comer and a solid presentation of nasa soldering.

i'm doing my first stryfe mod with the nyx cage and with the help of this video so thanks
Gonna do it
Drac:JUST DO IT!
Awesome! I'll be doing the same thing except with Meishel 2.0 and a Worker Clear PC 42.5mm cage. Bulldog flywheels also. I'm on a budget.
You are extremely smart. But getting higher torque motors for that cage might be handy
I will have to try this myself. Thanks for posting this vid drac.
With The camera angle on this, I would recommend turning on lock rotation and turning your scree 180 degrees
Thanks drac! Because of you I have an incredible modded stryfe,
I don't even have nerf gun but watching your vids, makes me want to buy one just to mod them. What do you think of making a stryfe painted like a 40k bolt gun ?
You should definitely do full tier 1 and tier 0 guides as well
If you don’t want to spend money on the new flywheels stuff antother great way to increase performance (not as much than if you use this tutorial) you can keep the stock fly wheel and remove the paddles of the fly wheel ( the pieces the dart has to push through to get into the fly wheel) also makes for almost no jams
I am getting in to modding blasters. I wanted to know why everyone is not using mosfets? And I wanted to thank you for your videos.
Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos!

Excellent guide for people getting into Stryfe mods. Loved the small nods to MTBs original Super Stryfe mod guide.
I neeeeed a guide like this for a rapidstrike!
Can you please link the microswitch you use i don't know witch one to get
stryfe's now cost $100 second hand on ebay in australia
Make your own. Getting started can be expensive but you can make a build under $50 after that
Thank you so much, I wish i knew this video when i started modding
Great video! I learned a lot. I'm totally going to mod this blaster.
I knew all of These,but it was still enjoyable
Hi!
I bought the battery you linked but it doesn't fit =O It's slightly too fat to close the battery door, even with every bit removed from the compartment and lid.
Great guide. Thanks.
Tier 1 voltmeter and painting please!
thanks a lot!!! i am not verry smart at electronics so this helped me a lot
Just wondering, what are all of the stryfe mod tiers? I’ve heard them all mentioned in many of your videos, but I never knew the full meaning of each.
Ok, so a tier 0 is a Stryfe using the best of the parts money can buy, it can cost $250-$300, it also has things like lights, kits, hyrdodip. Tier 1 has some 3dprinted stuff (Cage, switch holder, levers, etc) it has the more moderate priced stuff, will cost about $100-$200. Tier 3 is usually a motor and wire swap using trustfire batteries, will cost about $20. This is justa quick walkthrough of the most important stuff, all this can vary from person to person.
You should put the longshot front gun on the tri strike with a cool stock, or just make a video about putting them together😀 I love your channel
Ultimate mod guide when
Do you really need a new flywheel cage? Can you use a stock one?
“These mods are stable enough”
-Drac 2 years before the Stryfe got discontinued
I haven't been with this community for a long time. WHAT IN THE HELL
In all reality, it's not that bad. A lot of websites have custom shells, and there are plenty of Chinese knockoff shells that are just as good, if you are going to mod your blaster. They've been around for so long that we're completely self-reliant
@@coilovercat modulus stryfe still in production. it’s just a reskin with a few mods in the box. your fine
@@meese1k mini heart attack over!
@@coilovercat yep im getting a used yellow and blue stryfe off kijiji for 35 cad for both. Pretty good deal, want that blue one instead of the modulus one though. It comes with some pretty bad accessories tbh
Omg this was very helpful for me to do a mod. Thankyou so much.
I use a stock nerf switch on a 3s and haven’t had a problem with em
Right now I am trying to convince my mom to let me get a stryfe so I can do this mod with my dad and it will be my first mod!
Great vid drac but I wish you could use half length darts
Does anyone know where you can buy green transparent parts for the stryfe? I wanna add LEDs to my stryfe but have it come out of other places
Nerf is a sport. One, that you have to put more time and effort in than most sports, two, you have to rely on your team as much as yourself.
Drac which do you prefer: nerf gear up raider or nerf gear up recon?
Thanks, Lord Drac this video was very helpful!!!
