Stryfe Solenoid Install - Cut Guide

Demonstrates the installation of a solenoid in a Nerf Stryfe.
Cages are available here: www.thingivers...
Covers both the 35mm Aliexpress solenoid and FTW solenoid
Video jumps on:
"This is one of the differences with the FTW solenoid" - You need to make sure the back area is super clean and smooth with the FTW solenoid, or it will catch and jam. This is owing to the large circlip on the back of the pusher rod. Just manually push the solenoid in and out, and keep smoothing until it moves without any interference.

Hey Airzone, just wanted to say thanks for this awesome resource! Your work is very much still relevant in 2023 :)

[@MinistryofFoam]

Great video and easy to follow.

[@mrmarksman4965]

Wish I saw this before I installed my solenoid. Great video! A few questions: how did you get rid of the tube on the stock to make room for the battery, what battery did you use, and can you put the battery carrier on Thingiverse?

[@TinyToastandJam]

Great informative video

[@dailytacticsnerf]

Is their a half dart pusher for the solenoid?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

When I get the time to upload it..

[@jamesfuller3429]

Could you modify the model so it fits the modulus ecs10

[@gibsonf06]

what’s the wiring diagram and parts list?
i’m looking to make my own 3d printed brushless solenoid semi auto nerf gun and i don’t want the solenoid to stay out when i hold the trigger down i want it to snap forward and back once when i hold it down

[@AirzonesBlasters]

That depends on your build. Mine are typically brushless, and have a Narfduino inside. I can program the behaviour.

[@vastneon]

This is amazing, but does thingiverse not offer printing anymore? I don’t have a 3D printer myself but would love to have this on a build i am working on.

[@AirzonesBlasters]

Can try 3dhubs?

[@vastneon]

Airzone will try that, thanks! think a 21a omron can fit behind the trigger?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

@@vastneon I've never done it. I use the 10a cherry switches.

[@vastneon]

@@AirzonesBlasters d'you print them out of PLA or ABS?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

@@vastneon pla+ for this stuff.

[@vanshgandhi3465]

Is there any way in the universe that there is enough space for an arduino? (Cuz select fire will be really cool.)

[@AirzonesBlasters]

Heh of course. Stay tuned for the build

[@larsman2787]

I have no access to a 3d printer Do you print these for sale or can you refer a good 3d print service to print them?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

I can do, if you live in Australia. Otherwise 3dhubs will be fine.

[@Decapent_Tater]

Anyone have stl's for a solenoid holder? And what goes on the end of the solenoid?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

It's on thingiverse

[@williamcrowley139]

Where do you buy the screws?

[@AirzonesBlasters]

Ebay. They are just Countersunk M4 x 6mm, if I recall

[@brandenchung6401]

What is that pink stuff

[@AirzonesBlasters]

PLA+ plastic.
