I hate the 3.2 stroke that came with this machine so it was un my drawer for a year I took it out and my coworker gave me the 4.0 stroke cam and I fell in love so before u give up on a rotary machine remember to try the different cams and the rigid bar is my favorite
I have just got a 4m cam to the lines come out so much more crisp I'm wondering what each cam is for I can't find any info online at all please some one make a video for TH-cam so we can lern plzzzzzz ❤
I just bought a used one...To tell the truth the shading is awfull...I don't also like the lines...I have used dragonhawk fold pro til now and was alot better....or am I doing something wrong?
@@AlexandrosNikolakis nope peoples preferences
@@keirongander8659 The quality of the work does not only depend on the fact that someone is using a 4mm cam for, say, outlines, it also depends on who is working with what technique and how much voltage, because you can draw beautiful outlines with a 3.5mm cam and even a 3mm cam. What else I would recommend, and what plays a fairly important role in the quality of the work besides the cams, is what torsion bars you use. Because if you put, say, a 3mm cam, which may seem quite weak, BUT if you put, for example, the strongest torsion bar (Carbon Bar) of the Inkjecta V2 machine into this cam, the whole formula is completely different. Or, for example, if you put a 4mm cam with the softest torsion bar in your machine, that 4mm cam will no longer be as strong. That's why I like working with Inkjeca because, unlike many machines, here you adjust the machine to your own hand and you don't have to adjust your hand to the machine. A huge difference. What I can recommend is to get all the cams (2.5mm 3.0mm 3.25mm 3.5mm and 4.0mm) now you can get them in a box (Injecta cam pack) it's about 80-90 dollars here in Europe it's 89 Euro and buy the all existing torsion bars including the Inkjecta V2 torsion bars. I almost only work with V2 torison bars and the reason for this is because they are made of V2 torison baroque springs and even the strongest torsion bar has a softer, silkier and gentler impact and I could compare the feeling a bit to coil machines. And the other thing I can advise is that the torsion bar does not have any lateral vibration, so I put a very small sealing rubber ring on the machine, not a rubber band, but a tiny sealing ring (you can get such small rings in stores that deal with water taps and all kinds of things like that) ) whose diameter is 1 cm, I don't know how big this can be in inches. Because I often hear from others while their machine is running that the sound of the machine is a bit loud and uneven because they don't put a ring on it that would press down the torison bar and so it may happen that the lines are not sharp because the torison bar does not move 100% straight. Everything will work fine, just give yourself some time to familiarize yourself with the machine and its possibilities. I hope I was able to help you a little

Alright, you talked me into it. I'm saving 💸 💵 💲
Thanks for leaving the link below for the set up you used. Like these videos it weeds out alot of junk machines and easier to choose good ones. Especially like how you show the machine in use.
man i really want to buy this machine, but the only question is, is it compatible with all needle cartridges?? if i could just get this question answered. plz and thankyou
Yeah man I’ve never had an issue with carts not fitting
I find adjusting how much of the cartridge needle sticking out quite awkward with this machine. A pen style one you just twist it and its mega simple. This one you have to twist the vice screw thing, whilst pushing the bar and whole machine backwards and forwards, and sometimes when you tighten the vice the cartridge is locked in at the wrong angle
What kind of needle did you use for this machine ? The needles I’m using don’t seem to work with it 😢, also for a beginner here , could you make a video explaining which situations you would use the three different torsion bars with ? I’m confused as to when I have to use each one
Was already subscribed ❤️ love the videos so far and look forward to seeing more tutorials and tricks of the trade! They all have been extremely helpful and very easy to follow and understand. I never win anything so I doubt I'll win this beauty but who knows 🤔 fingers crossed! Thanks again for doing what you do
Subscribed and following great videos.
Can somebody recommend what cartridges or disposable grips to buy for this machine?
where did u get those disposable grip tubes those look very comfortable
idk what the hell im supposed to do with thismachine... i got cnc police cartridges and apparently the bar is just too long and pushes it all the way down before i even turn the damn thing on, broke 3 cartridges... what the hell grip or needles am i supposed to use... ive wasted $100 dollars already
I am running a hummingbird rotary and a bespoke coil was looking at a pen for wireless purpose but this looks better loving your videos and emails they are so informative and easy to understand so would like to thankyou
Here from your Facebook page. I'm entered to win the giveaway! 🥰💖
Gave away my old school machines in the USA when I moved to Germany a few years back. I made a machine a couple of years ago and now searching for a new one to purchase. My search led me to watching and subscribing to you as you're very informative brother.
Truth is I'm having a hard time deciding with all these new interesting machines. Lol the new pen cordless are attractive.. any recommendations from anyone knowledgeable would be truly appreciated 🙏
Hope i winnnn
What vintage were you running while lining with that 14 ?
what speed did you use on that fake skin piece? i find it unbelieveble how the ink it's going in... i'm used to cheyenne pen and cheyenne thunder.. i've started with a hummingbird bronc v4, tested other machines, now i am trying to use this inkjecta flite nano with the medium torsion bar (the black one) and i can't get used to it. it feels like a cheyenne spirit, super soft, not good for lining, not goot for packing. maybe it's me, or the fact that i can't find a 3,5 cam at the moment, but i'm still using the bronc v4 for good lining and packing :) so, for me... my experience with inkjecta said: get a cheyenne unio :)))
Me too
This is how you give a review!
I have Hyperion lithium. Same Faulhaber motor. Same bars. Same shape. Same thing. Crazy voltage parameters to get used to like the inkjecta..
Already Subbed and have all notifications on! Would love to win one of these it would help me learn coil and rotary styles!
Hey Nathan just wondering because I don’t have my license yet. Where can I get a good machine like the one your showing. ?
painful pleasures or CNC tattoo
I wouldn't try to buy from painful without a license if you are in the US ultimate tattoo supply will sell to you they have inkjektas and a bunch of other reliable top quality machines if your trying to go a bit cheaper some of the kwadron machines are around 250 and it goes up from there
What disposable grips are you using
I’m thinking of buying one , but it seems like it doesn’t come with the power supply cord , which one did you use ?
You can buy and use any RCA cord, alternatively you could also use a wireless battery pack
Subscribed and notifications are on! Thanks for all the useful emails and videos!
What’s the name of the grip?
Was already subscribed and comments on, watched a lot of your tutorials already and am making my way through them! Thanks for all awesome tips!!
Hey thanks for the video it was super helpful 😁,👍
I' really like that rose you do 😍 what colors do you use for it ? Brand? Name?
Subscribed! 😊
Can you adjust needle depth (not stroke) with this machine?
No, but you can with the new Flite X1 battery machine. Voltage and needle depth adjustment can be made while the machine is still running. Trust me
So how much does the needle hang out?
I want one so bad. So expensive though.
One of these would be really nice! im running a machine made by Johnny Gault and I love it and personally im about the original coil life but without lying, it does get a bit heavy after an hour or so.
Wow, you were actually able to get a machine from him without getting ripped off? I’m impressed.
@@dean733 for the price i paid i wouldve personally showed up to his front door had i not gotten it but yeah i have heard that a lot, but i will say this, i did order some more springs that i never received...
I subscribed and commented my dude!!
WOW...nice rose ..NEW sub here bro,,u from australia too?
Yeah bro :)
What’s the rubber band for on the torsion bar ? And where can I get a rubber band that works for it mine didn’t come with any
I use this machine
The light tells you the polarity bud. Run it in reverse and see how your tattoos change.
So i bougt InkJecta X1, it hav same system with cams and bars, i just used it twice so far, i heard carbon bar is good for everything and dont need to change it, what do you think, is it worth to put hard bar for 4.0mm cam and lining will be better?
Im doing 4.0mm with this black carbon ridgit(i dont know if i spell this right), its lining well, but i wonder if it could be better.
What the difference between this machine and the ultra lite? Is it just how much it weighs?
I recently just started my journey of tattooing, I have been subscribed to you email list for bit now always good informative stuff.
Thanks for reading them ;)
What disp grips are those?
Please do a review of all the different Inkjecta machines 😊
Just subscribed!🤞🏻
Subscribed with notifications turned on for all videos. This would be so awesome to win. Especially with just starting out. Best of luck to everyone.
Thx for the Video bro 😁 I had this beauty one time in my hands (I made my first tattoo with this machine, I could test her, because my Mentor have her) she lays very good in the hand and I like the little back weight on the hand
I have the chayenne Sol nova, she is good but I felt more comfortable with the inkjecta flite nano, want her as my 2nd machine, btw is the elite version better or is it just common called flite nano?
Last question, I saw that the grip Was in a steril package (I guess it was sterile) do I have to use for every tattoo a new grip? Because u get a Bar that I guess u can reuse, sure u need to clean it, but that did confuse me a bit
Thx 😁
Ok I looked in a Shop, there are disponseble and permanent Grips 😊
Love the tutorials and emails! I Look forward to them. They have been a big part in my progress 💯 I have been having a hard time finding a machine I'm happy with, I'm trying out my 3rd now lol
Not sure if you’ll see this, but did you find a machine you were happy with? I’ve been doing my research but it all feels conflicting. Just when I think I’ve found a good one I’ll find lots of reviews saying it’s bad! S
Which hits harder the semi-rigid bar or the thickest torsion bar?
Would be an amazing win. Think I've done everything to enter.
I've always loved art and love to draw and just recently started practicing more into tattooing. Using myself as a canvas. Your videos have been a great part in my process of learning techniques. Thank you 😊
Subscribed and all notifications are on! Hopefully they can fix the bugs on this rotary

@@Tattooing101 definitely need me one of these. Seen on fb about the giveaway & definitely like these inkjectas
It would have helped if you had of told us what needles you are using and the voltage.
The only thing I haven't got crossed to win this is my eyes!! 😁🙏🏻
Hey so i bought this machine you recommended! With your years of experience using it, when would be the applicable situations be when it comes to using the soft/med/hard torsion bar? Like would you use a soft one if youre working on a knee?
Everyone is different but I prefer soft bar for lining and shading. Medium bar for color packing
@@Tattooing101 Thanks! Y'all are awesome.
what cam for shadeing@@Tattooing101
Awesome.
Where can I get the grips for this machine? And what kind
which red inks did you used on that rose?
Is a rubber band required?
This looks like a good machine. I recently bought a Mast and will see how it goes. I had bought a solong tattoo kit, and can say please don't get anything from solong. Machines fell apart quickly, inks have iron oxidation in them and roll-out of skin, fade or infect quickly. Sighs... I will let you know about my new rig and inks folks.
i can bet you already changed that mast:))
love your videos! why are you having a rubber band on it?
keeps the bar flush with the bottom of the grip so it doesnt rattle around. I find it gives me more precisions and makes the machine quieter.
@@Tattooing101 awesome! i'm trying to find a machine, but it's super hard... I'm conflicted between the bishop wand shader, flite nano, and the axys valhalla.
@@simonkristiansen960 flite nano would be my reccomendation
@@Tattooing101 alright thanks! ive seen plenty people lineing with it aswell, but ive heard lineing is only good with 4mm+ stroke, but i want to use the standart cam so i have smooth shadeing, do you switch cams around or?
What fake skin do you use
Looks good! Thank you for sharing. 🌹
One of these would make my day!
18 volts ⚡️ 😱
“Love how quiet this machine is”. Sounds like a lawnmower when tattooing
If you think that’s loud try a coil
@@Tattooing101 can you buy one with a 4mm stroke or is all of the 3.2 and you buy the 4 separate
that come uo great
Would this machine hold up as daily drive ?
Yeah man inkjectas are solid. Used the same one for years, never had any issues
I would love to win!!

Love it
Did anyone ever even win?
Yep we announced the winner on the channel
This vs Sol Nova which is better?
I use both but I always say that the inkjecta is a way better machine
@@Tattooing101 Im confused as fk now, everybody loves Sol Nova. Why do you think InkJecta is better, i acan have Flight X1 which is the same as nano just wireless for 900 and Sol Nova Unlimited for 1100. Leaning towards X1 a bt couse its cheaper and got replacable strokes.
But whats your reasoning?
@@Tattooing101 And is 4.0mm is good enough for really bold lines? Some people says that this is a great shader but not very good liner.
@@ripper9112 4mm is best for bold lines as a longer stroke with a rotary = more power (its the other way around for coils) plus it allows you hang the needle out enough so that you can actually see what your doign when your tattooing without dumping ink all over your stencil
Yeah im aware of that, what i meant is how this machine with 4.0 compare to other top machines in terms of lining, maybe against Spektra Flux for example.
As i said i heard opinions that is not very good, im curious whats your take.
I just bought X1 but i dont have skins yet to test it out and its gonna be my first machine so i got no comparison.
I've been subscribed for a few months. Love the channel. I could really use a free tattoo machine especially this one. I can't even afford a cheap used one right now.
Great Video man👍
People kinda forget about the inkjecta flite Nano because there are so many newer options available, but it’s still a top notch machine nowadays. It has a brushless dc motor (what fk irons and Cheyenne just started using since the sol Nova and the flux) that doesn’t bog down and can run super fast, and it gives you the option to change the stroke or bar if you need to. The versatility is really great, because we always evolve as artists and change the way how we tattoo over time. With something like this you can just change the cam or bar if you want to try a new technique that requires a different hitting machine. I love my X1 😁
Hey which bars would you recommend for which application? Like soft for black/grey realism? Hard for lining? Thanks!!
@@SI-xj5tq
hey mate ✌🏻
There is no right or wrong, its all up to you. Just choose the one that suits you, or experiment a bit.
Coil machines are punchy, so you need a soft one for shading. But rotarys are hitting the skin with less force, so you dont need any give at all. Some people are doing great black and grey even with 4mm cam and steel bar, and others are using 2.5mm stroke and steel bar, or 3.5mm and a softer bar.. its really up to you, and the way you want to work. If you are a one machine guy i would try a steel bar, the carbon bar or the semi rigid bar. If it feels too stiff for your liking go softer, if it feels too spongy take a harder one
@@patrickdurka6188 thats an awesome reply, i really appreciate it! Thanks mate!
what cam did u use
4mm for lining.
3.5 for color
@@Tattooing101 thats what i used to use .4mm def outline then i use 3mm color try it .it smashes it in better than 3.5. Not as good for shadeing though at 3mm .do u have a instagram acc id love to follow u as u are insightfull and talented
@@tonyruyters5736 Which one for shading then?
I want this machine so bad but it sounds too loud
Can I use a wireless battery pack for the machine? If so wht type of battery pack is good for it
Hi what torsion bar did you used ?
