@@itsagundam79 what makes something an AEB is that the propulsion mechanism is still air, like a normal springer, but is cycled electronically, instead of manually like most springers. The Rapidstrike uses flywheels to propel darts, so it doesn't count.
First of all, I love what you did with the place. Second of all, I was just celebrating my first Stampede thrift ever, and now i need a Swarmfire on the double!!! Great video, Doc!!! 🔫
@@infinismo I have the Speedswarm (smaller pistol one) but not the Swarmfire (carbine type). I know the words can get jumbled up together with these similar names.
The Stampede is such a great-looking blaster, especially with a nice custom paint job! Just made a deal with a fellow nerfer to buy one he modded with a stouter spring, metal gears and is wired for 2S/3S LiPo. He claims it's hitting around 100 FPS and agreed to take $60 for it. Now I just gotta decide what my color scheme / design theme of all my load out should be, and it can shed the burden of the original N-strike Yellow to finally show its full beauty! I've got a Dart Zone Max Stryker, and plan to purchase a Rival Perses in addition to the above-mentioned Stampede to complete my regular arsenal for nerf battles. I will be running a Rebelle Sweet Revenge as my secondary/sidearm. I'm thinking either a scheme with blue as a primary color with black and white as accents, or black with green and silver accents. I would be painting all the above-mentioned blasters in whichever theme I choose so they look like a nice matched set. Any suggestions on which would look best across all the blasters?
I am proud to say that my first primary was a speedswarm , was playing a nerf war when I was about seven and absolutely dominated with it , ten rounds full auto, those were the days
Man I wish I had a studio like that for filming haha. I imagine it will make filming much easier once winter comes around. As for the blaster, I actually have the original colonial wasp 76 sitting here. (I got the OG purely so people could have contrast between the base model and the monkee mods version. I haven't had a chance to make a video on it, been way too busy with my main channel) This aeg design is actually what I initially wanted. Most other aegs are FAR too complicated for their own good. I don't want complicated, I want reliable. The 76 is just a regular, straight up aeg. No more tricks really needed.
The new setup looks great! 👍 While I really enjoy AEBs such as the Stampede and the Vulcan/Havok, the Colonel Wasp 76 is on another level for performance. Completely agree about being careful about painting it, its basically an MP40 silhouette! 😵
Interesting thing about the 76: there's a kit for it that moves the grip down and forwards for a more stampede look, leaving the motor in the area where the grip was. If you want a scifi look this is a good start imo
I feel like AEBs should get their own category for game balance. That way all the fun isn't ruined just because one guy on the other team happens to be using one
Does it suffer the same issue as the QWK Challenger and Edge where it's picky with darts? Because that's the biggest issue I've seen where if you aren't using the dragon/bamboo-style darts in those blasters, you're gonna have feeding issues
My stock Hasbro Fortnite Stryfe reskin flywheeler is more consistent and accurate than that thing. I understand the appeal of an automatic springer, but the bouncing barrel seems to be compromising whatever extra accuracy you may be getting from the spring design.
Right, so he doesn't actually know what AEG stands for then? No nerf blaster is an AEG, what with the A in AEG standing for Airsoft. Talking about nerf AEGs is like talking about Ducatti's new line of cars.
There are multiple meanings, it stands for air electric gun, airsoft electric gun and automatic electric gun. All these are wrong because we don't use guns but blasters, so it's AEB, automatic electric blaster
Wasn't the Vulcan also an AEB, or am I just remembering it wrong?
You are correct, it is an AEB.
Thanks, @@jeffreycarman2185 I wasn't sure if senility had finally claimed me. Haha!
What about the Rhino and Rapidstrike? Are they not AEB too? I was a little surprised not to see the Rapidstrike show up. Are select fires not AEBs?
@@itsagundam79 those are flywheelers.

I was so jealous when I saw your stampede! I still have yet to find any AEB :(
You have the Speedswarm blue trigger too, no?
I do not

The new studio is looking sweet! Great review as always DrFlux!!!
The first was the Vulcan, back in 2008. A lot older than you'd think.
Oh Yes the OG Vulcan!

Glad you like it!

Love that thumbnail! Really reminds me of the older blaster packaging
Congrats on the new place! Looks great. Between you and American Foam giving it your thumbs up, I might have to grab this.
Like'n the New Lab ....the light-up mask was a trip !!! Look'n GOOD Dr.Flux...😎👍
really nice intro talking about the old models, thanks drFlux
Good stuff Dr Flux!! Love the new setup
More to come!

The new studio space🤩😍🥳. I dub the colonel Wasp blaster “Angry Duck.” It sounds like quack quack.😂
Man aebs are so cool now with the sweetheart stormer v2 with its higher fps and fire rate
The dr flux theme is awsome
Love the Mask! 💫
I agree, the blaster is cool but the helmet is the real star of this vid 😄
That Monkee Mods blaster just needs a drum and the right foregrip, and you have yourself an AEG Chicago Typewriter.
Lol Phenomenal is thrown around to loosely when referring to the stampede, even when modded....smh esp when modded..great new digs Doc!
It reminds me of a mp 40.
Very interesting Blaster
Technically the Vulcan was an AEG before the stampede but it obviously used a belt feed
New Flux labs looks amazing! Great video as always.
That is an awesome blaster!
AYO WHERE DID YOU GET THAT SICK HELMET MISTAH FLUX?
Needs an orange BCAR, orange talon and an orange buffer stock and it will look much better
Does it suffer the same issue as the QWK Challenger and Edge where it's picky with darts?
Because that's the biggest issue I've seen where if you aren't using the dragon/bamboo-style darts in those blasters, you're gonna have feeding issues
I was using the new red worker gen 3 darts all day with no jams
@@drflux Perfect, thank you!
Nice , love me some AEG / AEB’s
Bros got that great grandpa special, 2077 edition.
Awesome studio!
I know not related but the wife got me the fire rat for my b day and I love it and I love the vids keep it up
New studio looks great!!!
Glad you think so!
Can the swarmfire be modded to get it up to at least stryfe performance levels?
first aeb nerf dropped was the vulcan but yea aebs are sweet
You forgot about the modulus regulator
can you give specs/model info about the battery you used?
oh no... I just realized they're reskinning the Swarmfire for the League of Legends Nerf LMTD blaster....
Dang, out of stock - I will be getting one as soon as it's back in
reminds me of a grease gun, cool!
My stock Hasbro Fortnite Stryfe reskin flywheeler is more consistent and accurate than that thing. I understand the appeal of an automatic springer, but the bouncing barrel seems to be compromising whatever extra accuracy you may be getting from the spring design.
? maybe need a shorter/longer barrel? A lot of these hobby blasters need a little tuning to get them just right.
Scar barrel with the right length will fix that no problem
Why dose it look like a mp40, nice video, keep it up
1:56 a weapon to surpass even Metal Gear!
Why isnt there metal gear kits for the swarmfire/speedswarm, they look SO COOLL
Where did you get that helmet!?😍
aebs are cool
Did they make a nerf Mp40?
completely unrelated, but where'd you get the mask thou?
Disrespectful to be using the mp-40 with curved mags and not holding it by the mag😤
would the rapidstrike not be an AEB (AEG)?
Sadly no, it uses flywheels and has a rotary based pusher utilizing an electric motor to function as well. No plunger system of any kind.
I'd keep it as is and paint it black because it looks like a German WW2 MP-40
The Challenger MK3: :'(
i think i’m going to pick up a 76 because it looks like a tommy gun
It looks like an mp-40
Bro y 3D printed nerf cost so much and so hard to put together
Seeing this makes me think:
"Can the internals for this or something like it be gutted and be used in the NERF Halo MA40?"
Trypophobia
Right, so he doesn't actually know what AEG stands for then? No nerf blaster is an AEG, what with the A in AEG standing for Airsoft. Talking about nerf AEGs is like talking about Ducatti's new line of cars.
Almost forgot. AEG stands for Airsoft Electric Gun... Just to clarify.
It stands for automatic
There are multiple meanings, it stands for air electric gun, airsoft electric gun and automatic electric gun. All these are wrong because we don't use guns but blasters, so it's AEB, automatic electric blaster
