Worker Lightweight and Heavyweight Tip Dart Performance & Characteristics.

Welcome back, modders.

Today, we'll be discussing regarding the performance and characteristics of Worker's new lightweight tip and Heavyweight tip darts. These breakdown of dart performance and characteristics can help your blasters choice to achieve the ideal performance of your desire. These darts can be used for both springer type foam dart blasters and also on the flywheel type foam dart blasters.

Firstly we will be looking into the Worker Gen 2 Heavyweight tip darts.

This new darts sets come in 2 different versions, which are the Bamboo stefan dart version and the standard stefan dart version. These new darts come with a much heavier tip darts, making the darts now weigh about 1.2 grams (Yes, we actually weighed them). These darts may not be able to hit at the highest FPS levels as done by the previous darts. The pictures below shows the performance of each dart blaster that is possible to be done.

These new darts performance to the relative blasters are shown to have a lowered performance but these heavyweight tip darts have shown to have very good accuracy. In our tests, we may have shot it at close range but we have noticed the spread of the new Heavyweight Tip darts is much smaller than that of the standard darts. The heavier tip darts allows the blaster to reach better accuracy. These darts will have very little deviation from the target area due to the wind direction of small winds. In our tests, we have used the black colored darts of the Worker Gen 2 Heavyweight tip darts.

Bradley Phillips' have done several extensive tests with these new heavyweight tip darts in his video. Click here to watch his tests on the darts.

The same accurate shot targets and FPS consistency can be said on the new Worker Gen 2 Bamboo Heavyweight Tip Darts.

These two new heavyweight tip of the bamboo darts do share the dart shape of the original Worker Gen 2 Bamboo Darts. The results of these bamboo darts are shown in the FPS Test pictures below.

These new heavyweight tip darts will allow the long range springer blasters to hit their targets with precision and more consistent over longer distances. These new heavyweight tip darts allows your foam dart blasters to travel distances and achieve accuracy unheard of before. Although these darts can be used in flywheel units, it is highly unadvisable to push them into any flywheel unit. Due to the aforementioned heavy tip of the darts, the blaster may get a significant dip in dart FPS performance. This darts may also affect the lifespan of the motor and also cause the motor shaft of the flywheel blaster to bend towards the inner wall of the motor.

Finally, we shall talk about the new Worker Gen 2 Lightweight Tip darts. These new darts sport the new purple tip darts and weighs about 900g.

These new Lightweight tip darts are another set of darts in the Worker darts. These darts just like the heavyweight tip darts can be used in both Springer blasters and also flywheel blasters. These new Gen 2 Lightweight tip darts weigh about 900g, lighter compared to the standard Worker Gen 2 and new Worker Gen 2 Heavyweight tip darts. These darts DO boast large FPS numbers compared to the standard and heavyweight tip darts.

These New Lightweight tip darts have given some very big numbers for FPS performance comparisons relative to other darts of similar type. However, this lightweight tip darts comes at a big disadvantage. These dart do not have the momentum to carry itself to long distances. In addition to that, the lightweight tends to swerve in all directions causing the dart accuracy to suffer heavily in the large field foam-dart games. Bradley Phillips' video mentioned above gives a very detailed explanation and break down when using the lightweight dart when using springer dart blasters. 

Although it may not be suitable in the large big game fields, it is good when played in close quarters games and also medium sized field games. The dart will have just enough momentum for the dart to hit true to where you intend to aim at. This trait is also true when these darts are used in the flywheel blasters. These new lightweight tip are much softer than the standard orange tip worker darts. This allows itself to be used more efficiently with the flywheel, giving them an average FPS of 150 when using together with a Worker phoenix 2.0 blaster.

In conclusion, these new darts in the line up can help to spice up your game on how you wish play it as. Now with more dart selection to the mix, we can see if people are willing to experiment on these new darts and how these will change their gameplay. We at Monkee Mods hope to see more colourful darts flying across every foam-dart game place possible. Have fun and keep the foam darts flying
