If my opponent missed me with hypersonic shots I'd be very convinced to keep my head down though, so maybe use only the screamers and go for suppression fire?
@@niufyy Don't know what you were expecting to find in the comments. Obviously, you're supposed to watch the video first, since it's positioned at the top above the comments, but...You're Welcome. :) If you think it's wrong to write spoilers, then feel free to tell RUclips or Captain Xavier that. Hahaha!
The Ultra Magnus thing. As a Transformers fan, that was amazing. Shame he never actually got a chance to shine, he is, in cannon, only rivaled in strength by Optimus him self.
The 4 could probably take a brass breech, and could be an actually worthy sidearm. I’d guess it would hit 140-160 FPS or even more with more modification.
I really like your vids their sometimes funny and I'm learning a little about what people use in nerf war events and other things and I think your the best nerf RUclipsr that I know of
Thoughts, well put together, unbiased review, interesting results. I have the 4 and I like it, bought the 2, it went back, was very loud , and underwhelming. I think making a friction fit, internal barrel magazine (like the TKO) would be cool, make it so not much extra is sticking out the front. Bangarang
Captian Wonderful episode. The FPS results along with the range testing is awesome to see. It is interesting how the stock spring is heavier than K-26. I would like to see the 5's spring in the 4 like you I think it would be interesting to see what happens. Thanks for doing all your do for the hobby. Bangarang
I have an Ultra 5 in pieces I don't really want to bother putting back together; trying to integrate a 10 round mag and mod to fire elite. That spring looked really good for some reason and now I know it's power. Thank you, sir. I shall see to it that it gets a new life in a better home.
Those stock performance figures were surprising to us all, I think! The '4' definitely needs some more love with rebarrelling and the spring of the '5' as you said. Interesting stuff to be sure.
Awesome video, Captain! Those are the only Ultra Blasters I own, and I really enjoy them both. I tend to see them mostly as home plinkers, personally, but they're fun.
Okay I need a source for the ultra 5 spring. A lower frequency will fix compression issues in so many blasters. You need to see what it does in a Kronos
It amuses me that the 'upgraded' Ultra 5 got the captain a bit kerfluffled 😁. If you could get a rebarrel on it for regular half darts, it looks like there could be enough room to hollow out it's internal magwell for a SPAMF type kit, but that may be wishful thinking on my part.
I absolutely love my ultra 5...it got me back into flinging foam and all the awesome mod thingy stuff you and all your badass breathern have turned me onto... it's crazy how inaccurate everyone says ultra is because I'm a dead shot with it way over 50 feet...the screamers seem to work bestest for meeeee
Would you consider shaving down one side of each fin on some ultra darts to try to get them to spin/stabilize in flight? Might be an interesting experiment...?
Captain Xavier I love hand guards myself, especially the cycloneshock’s. That one just seems.. terribly wonky. Though I’m sure hasbro wouldn’t have designed it if didn’t fit in someone’s hands.
They made .50 whistlers. But the heads were larger so they will not fit in the magazines. I would love to see someone develop a mag compatible whistler!
Remember when you tried it with the Atlas? It's stock spring was almost identical to K26, and the K26 didn't change the performance at all. Maybe just for the fun of it, put the 4's spring in the Atlas to see what the Atlas does with increased fps? Since putting in K26 didn't do anything, now that you know that the 4 has a spring that's heavier than K26, you can finally give the Atlas it's long overdue performance increase!
Actually the Atlas does like k26 but you have to use 23 or 24 coils. He shorted it on that vid...even my 23 coil spring is still easy to prime. I read in the comments that xavier felt like he could've gone 25 coils. Way more consistent. The Atlas, my favorite and most impressive nerf gun. In the airgun world we call it droop not spread...but if you power it up and vary the ammo light heavy light heavy - then you'll have spread. I use headshot followed by little valentine.
Now I am going to go bury my head in the sand and pretend I never read that 😩. The villianator is awesome, I recommend you pick one up soon. I am going to test mine for k26 though, and if it can take it, I will post the results here.
I really wish they'd make Elite sonics. I recently got 175 original sonic darts as a bonus on another purchase and I'm thrilled because I still have plenty of stuff they can go into, including a Quick 16 and Speedload 6. But I do need to figure out a good power upgrade for them. Maybe one day just bite the bullet on getting custom springs made for some older blasters.
Hubert Nguyen That concept could be applied to the 5 as well, but it already has a complex breech mechanism, which might be harder to adapt to half-length darts...
Yes, of course you could. It has already been done to the Magnus, the Han Solo Blaster, the Kronos, and the Takedown. Anything that has an internal mag can be adapted to take external mags.
Great, now I need 2 ultra blasters. The 2 and the 4, both for rechambering. I was initially going to make a breach fed firestrike but I’ll probably just use the 4. Also how’s the draw weight difference?
Hey Cap, Do you think the Ultra 4 could be “rebarreled” with a threaded coupler so you could attach absolvers to it? I mean is making it as modular as possible the most Captastic thing you could do to it?
Nope. Not possible. Can't be done. Sure, I've done it to many other blasters, and sure we have space ships and self-drivibg cars, but doing it to an Ultra 4 is simply beyond the skills of man! ;p
Captain Xavier. I sense much sarcasm in you Sir ;) Allow me to rephrase the question. Do you think it could be rebatreled with a threaded coupler easily? Or with the smashed profile of the blaster would it have a significant amount of “jank “
I've heard that the proprietary Ultra Darts aren't really that much better than Elite. Then again, I've really only seen one video on the topic. So this video surprised me!
New series: Can it take an ultra 5 spring?
I might have to do this myself. But the rules would be that you don't have to cut it down to fit. I can't afford a ton of them of course.
Yes please
Just installed one in a takedown. My frig its powerful
"Aimed for the 50, hit the 25"
Tail as old as time.
Darts like old streamlines
[dat] Ultra accuracy~
Had to drop a like after the Transformers clip 😂
He has a brilliant quote from season 3: "This place is beautiful....Ok, give me the bomb!"
FPS means nothing if you can't hit the broad side of a barn.
Just turn it into a heat seaking missile launcher
If my opponent missed me with hypersonic shots I'd be very convinced to keep my head down though, so maybe use only the screamers and go for suppression fire?
...from the inside.
Should’ve gotten chloryphyte darts
(attaches scar barrel) The future is now, old man
I guess when the Ultra 5 or 4 end up on clearance or at Goodwill, then I'll pick them up for their springs.
Yeah same😆
Thanks for the spoilers idiot
Laurynas Petr how is this a spoiler
@@niufyy Don't know what you were expecting to find in the comments. Obviously, you're supposed to watch the video first, since it's positioned at the top above the comments, but...You're Welcome. :)
If you think it's wrong to write spoilers, then feel free to tell RUclips or Captain Xavier that. Hahaha!
@@Bacondoggo I know, right? I bet he didn't even watch the video. Oh well, that's the internet for you.
The Ultra Magnus thing. As a Transformers fan, that was amazing. Shame he never actually got a chance to shine, he is, in cannon, only rivaled in strength by Optimus him self.
The only reason I am considering buying the ultra 5 is to paint it in ultra magnus colors and make a name plate for it
Apparently the new version in the Netflix series is really good.
The 4 could probably take a brass breech, and could be an actually worthy sidearm. I’d guess it would hit 140-160 FPS or even more with more modification.
The question is whether or not that's much of an improvement.
Hubert Nguyen yeah
I was thinking that. Rebarrel it and you have a powerful sidearm
The beard is looking magnificent Sir!
Yes
Yes
22:19 now you have to start a new show called: Can It Take A Ultra 5 Spring?
It almost seems like Ultra does better at higher FPS
I really like your vids their sometimes funny and I'm learning a little about what people use in nerf war events and other things and I think your the best nerf RUclipsr that I know of
"That movie definitely messed me up as a child"
Yeah, but it's better than the four or five new ones they made.
The G1 reference
I love it
Fantastic set of 'confused' faces from the Captain.
Making use of those pry tools!!
This is a video that someone who does animation could quite literally go viral from this monologue. It’s is gold!
Thanks? I think?...

I think making a friction fit, internal barrel magazine (like the TKO) would be cool, make it so not much extra is sticking out the front. Bangarang
I like how this is kind of a review too, because I very much enjoy your reviews because you take apart the blasters when you review them
Also, my biggest takeaway is if ultra didn’t fire ultra darts or if they could fire normal darts, these would’ve been great blasters
If a re chambering kit is produced for the Ultra 5, I just might try it
Wow...I held the Five at Drac's and immediately hated the ergo, shocked you found it comfortable.
I just ran across this channel and my god the readout of this guy has so many jokes. You could not come up with better material.
"A word from our sponsor"

glad you gotten a couple of the Ultra blasters to test the k26 spring. anyways thank you for the great content my friend

16:00 Spit it out junior. Lol good one cap
Bawls...I really need to be more careful when editing...
Those stock performance figures were surprising to us all, I think!
The '4' definitely needs some more love with rebarrelling and the spring of the '5' as you said. Interesting stuff to be sure.
Progress is a very appropriate word
Very impressive. Trigger release is marked by a very satisfying THWACK. Doesn’t mean I will buy any Ultra product, but still good to watch.
I love feel of the priming system of the Ultra 4.
Ah damnit cap, that ultra magnus joke, i can't deal with this right now XD
Awesome video, Captain! Those are the only Ultra Blasters I own, and I really enjoy them both. I tend to see them mostly as home plinkers, personally, but they're fun.

Was thinking along the same lines, maybe Ezekiel could come up with a nice kit.
I feel like the ultra 5 would be easier to be made to take half dart mags than the magnus and even the kronos, just because of its profile
I absolutely love my ultra 5...it got me back into flinging foam and all the awesome mod thingy stuff you and all your badass breathern have turned me onto... it's crazy how inaccurate everyone says ultra is because I'm a dead shot with it way over 50 feet...the screamers seem to work bestest for meeeee
Cap is a man of science!
I kinda wanna mod the 5 to fire elite darts. Don't know how difficult that'd be though.
The 5 would be very difficult. Elite darts are longer than Ultra so you would have to extend the entire mag area.
That's weird, heavier than k26?
I leave this channel for a while come back to see not much has changed except the content getting better and better
Would you consider shaving down one side of each fin on some ultra darts to try to get them to spin/stabilize in flight? Might be an interesting experiment...?
Or add a rifled barrel
Its like we speculated when we where playing with the ultra in your hand crossbow ultra is bad in flywheels but almost agreeable in springers
So whats your fav version of ultra magnus? I really like him in Prime and Animated
The stock ultra springs are 12kg, as was tested by EZE Nerf
Interesting that you like the ergo on the ultra five whereas most others in the hobby find it atrocious because of the hand guard.
I like hand guards. And I have large hands and it actually fits them!
Captain Xavier I love hand guards myself, especially the cycloneshock’s. That one just seems.. terribly wonky. Though I’m sure hasbro wouldn’t have designed it if didn’t fit in someone’s hands.
Loved the transformers joke. Holy crap, that movie was dark
That whistle is nice and one reason I love original Mega. Can regular dart calibre get a whistler?
They made .50 whistlers. But the heads were larger so they will not fit in the magazines. I would love to see someone develop a mag compatible whistler!
@@CaptainXavier I would like to see that too, or a way of cutting regular darts to make them whistle.
I might salvage the spring out of every ultra five I find because the spring is apparently heavier than k26
you could totally drill out the bottom of the ultra 5 and stick a magazine inside the old internal magazine.
I'm glad someone likes the aesthetics of the 5 cant wait to see what you're able to do with it so I can burgle
More power yeah!
I love k26 springs
Those sonic screamers make me want to see a comparison of all of nerf's whistling darts!
Also, the sound of ultra springers are awesome with that huge THUNK when they fire
Remember when you tried it with the Atlas? It's stock spring was almost identical to K26, and the K26 didn't change the performance at all.

Very interesting episode indeed. it almost makes want to buy a U4 and some Screamer darts for the Heck of it.
I have the ultra 4, and the darts are really stable. And because of the tight and packed up barrel, the darts shoots almost lazer beams.
It’s a rare day indeed when hasbro manages to out perform a K26. Why must you toy with our modding curiosity hasbro?!?!
These are interesting results! I'm sure there's plenty of fun things you can do with either of these
Brass breach ultra 5 that take all standard form darts. I've got to build one. Also I would like to know if the 5's spring would fit in the magnus.
WOW I NEVER THOUGHT THIS DAY WOULD COME!!! It has finally come the day k26 isn't the strongest and beefiest spring around!!!!!!!
Well...it has happened before...
Welp I had no idea!!!
bruh what spring does the ultra 5 have, a k36?
0:59 I agree. 5 inches is WAY too long!
I wanna see the ultra 5 spring in the ultra 4
New series name can it take a ultra 5 stock sping? Not as catchy but the bar has been raised.
Nice looking blaster, the 4, and seems to work well.
Barrel d for regular ammo could be good.
(How about demolisher rockets)
Do a can it take a k26 on the dart zone villianator.
I just watched the rest of the video and realized he said he wanted one, so I assume that means that episode is coming soon?
Nope. I just said that to tease you all. I will never to the Villionator just to taunt you! MWAHAHAHAHA!
Also...I don't have one so...
Now I am going to go bury my head in the sand and pretend I never read that 😩. The villianator is awesome, I recommend you pick one up soon. I am going to test mine for k26 though, and if it can take it, I will post the results here.
due to air restrictors in some ultra 5 looks loss velocity, should be can remove air restrictor and more seal it then add more grease
I really wish they'd make Elite sonics. I recently got 175 original sonic darts as a bonus on another purchase and I'm thrilled because I still have plenty of stuff they can go into, including a Quick 16 and Speedload 6. But I do need to figure out a good power upgrade for them. Maybe one day just bite the bullet on getting custom springs made for some older blasters.
This is a great birthday present thank you cap!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday, you filthy foam flinger
John James hey! Who you calling filthy?
I wonder if someone will design a SPAMF-style magazine breech for the Ultra 4...
Hubert Nguyen That concept could be applied to the 5 as well, but it already has a complex breech mechanism, which might be harder to adapt to half-length darts...
I have the ultra 4 and its pretty good
Interesting! This episode gives me some modding hope.
I was thinking about getting the ultra 2 for it’s reloading but I think I might get the ultra 4
Ultra magnus, shockwave... Hasbro's mixing their toylines.
Also could an xshot regenerator take a k26? Or a crusher?
A brass-breech Ultra 5 would be an awesome sidearm for close range!
Wonder if the 6 could be modified for external mags?
There is an Ultra 6?
Captain Xavier what ever one had the internal mag. Lol. I don’t recall the number.
Captain Xavier the 5. That one. I wonder if you can make it take external mags.
Yes, of course you could. It has already been done to the Magnus, the Han Solo Blaster, the Kronos, and the Takedown. Anything that has an internal mag can be adapted to take external mags.
Captain Xavier that’s awesome. I have learned a lot watching your videos. Keep it up and awesome beard good sir.
I cut the handguard off of my ultra 5 and sanded the sharp edges on the grip and it’s way better to hold and fire now👍
Great, now I need 2 ultra blasters. The 2 and the 4, both for rechambering. I was initially going to make a breach fed firestrike but I’ll probably just use the 4. Also how’s the draw weight difference?
I noticed no difference at all.
Please don't feed the Ultra. It will breed and continue to exist.
i wonder if they have made a mod for the 5 to take normal elite dars or adventure force waffles....?
No, the bolt does not open enough to chamber elites. People are working on half dart kits though.
@@CaptainXavier ohh nice... If I can find a 5 might pick it up... Need a side arm, besides my trusty hammershot.
The ultra 5 has a good form factor and I love the AR15 style prime on the ultra 4
I like how he has about 30 hammer shot pistols from the zombie strike series
love the video!
the stock spring being heavier than the k26 was SOO FUNNY
TRAIN - 10/10 Would train for atmosphere..
The ultra four is just a fun can plinker
Well this was sweird huh ultra gave us a stronger spring than k26 I’m interested thanks for the vid cap
Is the video picking up the whistle?
I have the 5, was going to skip it, but I may have to get it and some screamers.
16:05 A little editing hiccup there?
Obviously. And it has already been pointed out.
I'm terrified and impressed that the Ultra 4 and 5 have that high an FPS compared to the other Ultra line blasters.
What's that shack behind the trees
It used to be a crypt.
Here's the video where Captain Xavier talked about it.
ruclips.net/video/SQHPpVOKf_Q/видео.html
@@captsomeguy1 thanks
@Captian Xavier I actually did a mod that made the ultra 4 shoot darts if you want to see
could you do the ultra sniper?

I think it would be less an issue of "jank" and more an issue of dead space.
The Ultra blasters are almost the exact opposite of Elite 2.0, the internals are so overbuilt in comparison it's actually really impressive
Right?
I've heard that the proprietary Ultra Darts aren't really that much better than Elite. Then again, I've really only seen one video on the topic. So this video surprised me!
Imagine these shooting mega darts and double springing the ultra 5 with its original spring for more power
i DIED at the transformers reference
Does ultra count as heavy ammunition because it sucks so hard?
Because if it is the ammo is dirt cheap and you could undersling a 5
Not in our games, no.
Bummer
Btw how many hammer shots do u have!
Many
The ultra 4 reminds me of Captain Rex heavy blaster pistols
