Stinger V2: Pushing The Limits of Brushless Nerf

In this video I shortly document the journey of Stinger V2's development. There's a lot of different scenes and it was filmen at a lot of different times so hopefully it's not too confusing.

Here's the text from a reddit post I made which still counts and sums it up pretty nicely:

This project is now almost a year in development and I’m excited to share my progress. Stinger now has an insane amount of RnD in and I’m pretty comfortable with calling it “World’s most advanced nerf blaster”

What makes it so advanced? Well here’s a rundown.

Dual Stage Brushless drivetrain running fully closed loop to match flywheel speed (under 100ms trigger to fire from standstill, still needs some tuning but should be achieveable with AM32). FPS is higher than any flywheel competitor.

Custom solenoid with return dampening (rubber O-ring on the head) and low IR. Combined with rapid decay to achieve 28+ dps)

Sides made out of lasercut and brushed aluminum for insane rigidity and durability. Right side also serves as an effective heatsink for the motors

Folding carbon fiber stock which is also modular allowing removal, picatinny or custom stock mounts.

Insanely thin at 28mm at thickest point. (Thinnest flywheel blaster in the world)

HD screen for menu system (using joystick) allowing for full control over every setting and setting up multiple (up to 5) custom profiles. Screen is also relatively easy to replace and source. Nothing is glued in place.

IR gate for mag detection

BCAR module for accuracy (optional and easily swappable)

Mag release. No gravity drop because it would not work well with the shallow magwell.

AM32 ESC’s

Custom PCB for reliability. Also soft mounted to increase lifespan. High side switch can turn off the entire blaster.

Lots of safety inclusions. Such as a (replaceable) fuse on the main power line, prevent fire when aiming down or up (Gyro)

Everything can of course be disabled or tuned to your liking.
