Why Dart Players Use Different Flights and Steams? The basic physics behind it.
A quick chat about the differences between various flights. :)
The different shapes and size's flights come in and the impact they have.
My channel is exclusive to darts only content. I create my content as I simply love to play darts and want to help other dart players improve with my own channel.
All my video's are based on how to play darts as well as advise on equipment and general darts setup with the aim to guide any new players in their darting journey as well as provide more experienced or even professional dart players with dart content to help improve.
I throw around an 80 average myself with my left hand due to in injury and dartitis in my right arm.
I may on occasion use footage from the Professional darts corporation (the P.D.C) as well as The British Darts organisation (The B.D.O). These are used under fair use legislation and all credit should be given the rightful creators.

Such a good channel! You do not repeat the same basic stuff that has been said dozens of times before. Instead, you actually provide some very detailed and useful information!
I would like to thank you for this video. It has helped me a lot in choosing the right type of stem. I always wondered why aluminum stems flew so well for me but i never liked the added weight. I picked up some bulls side loading stems as they are the same shape as the aluminum stems and my darts fly extremely well. Thank you again for this educational video.
Fantastic information again Daniel, I’ll have a blast with different setups when I’m home 👍🏻🎯
Thank you for this vid! I really appreciate your format of lots of substance in a compact video, and yours are among the few videos I don't skip thru on RUclips. I never thought of barrel length resp shaft thickness as influential but you've reasoned well IMO.
You mentioned Steve Beaton's use of alu stems. His previous set of darts was my ever first set of darts and I still can't work out why they're so special but sometimes they seem just magical. I'm sure you have loads of ideas for future videos but I would personally love to see you review/explain these some more, or even talk us through the evolution of Steve's darts what with their various barrel diameters. In any event keep up the good work!
Sounds good I'll get that on my todo list 😀
Great information. Really loving your educational style. Sometimes just a few things missing. For example, in this vid, you don't mention weight. Alloy stems are about 0.5 - 1 gram heavier than nylon. I like a tweenie to mid length stem, depending on the dart, and a small standard or no:6 flight. I find with alloy stems, the darts hit the board tail down, which doesn't suit my style. The lighter nylon or polycarbonate helps keep the tail up slightly. Just my input
One of your best videos! I use Robson flights and had no idea on its impact. I’ve purchased 15 sets of darts to get the right combination for better play. This video is the best yet to help me mix and match combinations of stems and flights. I also have a bag full of flights not being used that now I know may be beneficial to my play.
I’m a 2 MPR seeking to get to 3.0.
Baby steps but I’ve only been playing for about a year. Your videos are very helpful to my goals.
Your answering every question i am looking for, I said it before and I'm sure you will make me say it again with another brilliant video, but brilliant analysis, very educational, and you are making me a better player with each video. Big fan of yours, thank you very much!
Thank you! :)
Good video this lad 👍🏻
This was helpful - I plan on experimenting with the pear shaped flights.
So helpful for a beginner!
Good video mate, I have a big issue with darts dropping and looping low, been testing with kite flights and they go higher which is good but also fishtail so still experimenting
Have you tired a slightly shorter steam? :)
@@Straightdarts I already currently use a short stem and standard flight. I think it is more a technique thing more than anything
very interesting about the speed. So i am wondering if the faster dart will end up in the board higher than the slower or did i miss something there. thanks for the video
Yes 😀 that is the side effect of a faster dart. I will so hot the bord harder and can cuae the dart to land flatter in the board. 😀
I use various flights and stems depending on the barrel length, weight, shape.
I use intermediate stems with standard flights. But can tell such a difference between 100 micron and l style nearly 250 micron. I really can get used to either one but trying to see which is more price efficient over time
I find the thicker the flight the slower it travels but it also depends on material and how well compressed if is. I'd also use 100 micron rx4 flights or unbranded 75 micron. They last me as long as any flight iv tried including molded systems.
i use the thicker stem as an extension of the dart. my thumb sits on the seam between the barrel and the stem
Whats the id of the first dart that you have shown in the first part of this vid? the one with the orange robson standard plus flight..thanks mate
Quantum Darts 'Resonance' - 90% Tungsten - 22g
I used to use aluminum shafts with the small speed flight . Then I started throwing curveballs , the dart would be going toward target then the last foot or so it curve right or left. Now I use a plastic long stem with a tear drop flight. Now if the dart doesn't hit the target its because I screwed up. Not curving.
That is what you want though. You can always improve your own game but it's hard adapting to a dart that not right for you. 😀
Would you happen to know what different sizes the chef teeth the part that screws into the barrel itself what different sizes are those? I have a set of docs at the standard stem does not fit it’s too small and I need some thing with larger screws or teeth to respond to the barrel itself.
I think the old tread was called 1/4 bsf. It's a bit wider.
What stems length and type would you reckoned for stacking ?
Medium aluminium stems and smaller flights.
I would have liked to see the difference between different lengths.
I'll stick it on my todo list for you :)
Ok, I'm still more of a rookie than not but I I understand what you're saying. I am thinking I may need to at least change my set-up, if not the darts themselves (which I can't afford right now). I throw Zen Roshi darts (bomb-shaped, front weighted - 25g) with short stems and med standard flights (hard, thick flights which I recently changed to lighter ones by accident). My darts often tend to drop which I think might mean I threw too light or released too quick. Sometimes they go in the board with more angle up. Would helping the dart be faster change this until I buy some slightly lighter darts? Hope I'm not asking too much of you. If so, ignore me. (maybe I just need to concentrate more, lol, when I practice and compete)
It sounds like you need to find the pause at the end of your drawback, throw softer with the arm and flick more with the wrist. Make sure your elbow is still when you do this :)
What's short of set up equipment would you like to try? Drop me an email straighttothepointdarts@gmail.com and if I can post to you and i have them, I'll try to send you some stuff for free. :)
I have a question. What are the difference between heavy darts and lighter one? Also the long stems and short one? Thank you!
The shorter the steam, the quicker the flight catches the air, and the more it slows, the dart down and elevates the lift at the rear of the darts.
A heavey dart can carry its self in the air better, this is a lot of players with bad technique like a heavy dart when they first start.
Some skilled playes like heaven darts as well, though.
The heavier the dart, the softer you can throw and the slower the movement of your arm can be.
They weight has an implacet in the timing required in the throw.
This is why you can have honeymoon periods with different weights. Rather than fixing the timing playes change weight, when the timing adjusts, you have the same problem with the new weight. :)
@@Straightdarts how about the heavy and lighter one? What are the difference?

@@Straightdarts thank you!
Steams? A bit of typo there bud
Thanks mate 👍
Darts travel at approximately 12 mph...just saying.
Hey buddy! I already message on gmail. Hoping you might see. Thank you!
Its about your dart set up. Where did you get those? Thanks!
You use extra short alu shaft ?
Yeah :)
Well explained but there's a lot more to it than that point length plays a part and also the skill level of a player Taylor was very good at extremes in barrels flights and stems but unless you give each set up your full practice dedication and then bring it to match level it will not make much of a difference to the pub player but a good effort in explination
Thanks, matey
