Review: The 2,000 $ "Lancehead F1" Limbless Crossbow

@@willw5868 Because you automate the cocking, that some how negates the point of having a bolt caster/crossbow and some how makes it a gun equivalent? I get the feeling you've never shot a gun or a crossbow, let alone a bow and arrow .

[@willw5868]

@@thaphreak there’s no functional application of a crossbow. Despite what you guys may say, it has literally 0 practical application compared to a firearm. Except maybe that you could potentially make one yourself in the wild, which obviously is not a relevant point to the discussion of motorized crossbows. However crossbows and bows and such are cool, because you are firing the projectile nothing but your own strength. If you take that away by adding a motor and batteries and crap then the nothing novel or cool about it anymore imo. If your only goal is fire a projectile the easiest most efficient way possible, just get a gun. I’ve shot bows and arrows, I’ve shot guns. I know they aren’t the same thing (duh) my point is just that I don’t see the purpose of a motorized crossbow when guns exist. Your taking away the interesting cool part of the bow.

[@mymilkshake001]

@@willw5868 I get where you're coming from in the fact that guns are much more effective and practical but IMO saying "there's no functional application" isn't true as crossbows and bows have plenty of uses when it comes to hunting. Firing a gun will clear out any wild animal in like a 2 mile radius. Yeah you can use a suppressor but they'll never be whisper quiet on anything larger than a handgun or submachine gun with specialized subsonic rounds. A bow or crossbow won't have that same "HEY EVERYONE, THERE WAS A LOUD ASS NOISE HERE SO LET'S ALL SCATTER AND GO IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE FOREST" effect on animals. Which is why I mentioned the sound a motor might have in my original comment.

I am really surprised no one has designed a crossbow or a springbow like this with a really powerful motor that is battery operated. That automatically recocks the weapon right after you shoot. This way you load the bow and shoot and immediately and automatically the motor turns on and recocks it. That way by time you lower the bow to reload it is already recocked. This would save you a lot of time and energy and allow you to essentially shoot the bow every 5 or so seconds. You could either use a battery or battery and ultra capacitor to charge/load super fast. This would be a really effective and awesome weapon. Hell you could even add an auto loader of sorts haha.

The reloading system looks cumbersome.

[@galenorla8066]

honestly its pretty decent for what else is available on the crossbow market. With Joerg's signature 'draw assist' on this thing, it'll have less power, but reload MUCH faster.

[@PedroGarcia-yb8kx]

Draw assist doesn't reduce power.

[@brianmincher716]

Joe Nanamous this would be brilliant for a tree stand, what are you talking about? It’s no longer, and much narrower than a traditional crossbow.

[@tanyathorvilson]

Why not have it built in? Then a small brushless motor attached to the winch could be used instead. Hell he could even put one of his arrow magazines from his other repeating bows on it at that point.

[@tanyathorvilson]

@@brianmincher716 it would be good if you loaded it before you're in your tree stand. Loading it when you're up in a tree would be cumbersome. Look how awkward it was having all that room and a table to set it on.

[@johnlaccohee-joslin4477]

I would really reckomed you take a good look at the Benjiman air powered bow, i think for hunting it leaves many other bits of gear for dead, it has a huge speed count and does not weigh a ton. It is nicely finished off , and because there is no string involved there is not the same dry fire problem as with all limbed bows, really worth taking a look at, when it comes to home defence, its fast to reload and something thats better to be behind than in front of.

[@THESLICKNESSEDM]

Yeah that airgun arrow launcher thing is cool

[@50StichesSteel]

I love the smart, innovative, slim design but it looks like somewhat of a hassle to re-cock it...If they could somehow incorporate the crank internally and make it faster I would give them my money. At the moment the more traditional limb design is still a better hunting option IMO..Thank you for showing us this creative bow though!

[@BeetleBuns]

Yea, I think the compact design of the newer reverse limb crossbows are a lot more practical for hunting especially still hunting or hunting from a blind, but the long power stroke gives this crossbow a much longer range than a standard crossbow as the longer arrows will have more stability. It might be a decent option for hunting out west because of that feature...

[@4473021]

Just stick a motor on the crank hue

[@Mangobrain82]

4473021 you’d need a battery for that and batteries get heavy. You’d need something with a lot of torque also and it’ll be hard to get something light and compact with a battery and it’s already 13 lbs

[@Flying0Dismount]

It's innovative, but totally non-practical and overpriced... Engineering-wise, it needs 4 perfectly balanced springs so it is never going to be as accurate as a limb crossbow either, especially as the 4 individual springs age and things start to get unbalanced.. At 13 pounds and over a minute to load (with the most awkward crank to attach and remove and a stupid set of safety pliers- really?), poorly designed stock, it's about the least practical device I've ever seen.. It's not even that "cool" looking to make up for all its shortcomings.. And at 350 fps, it's also totally unimpressive given its very long power stroke: there are many faster bows out there, and they all accomplish their faster speeds in lighter packages with shorter power strokes and can also do it with heavier arrows as well. You couldn't pay me to use this contraption..

Love the usage of pulleys! When Joerg says its heavy, I'd automatically assume its impossible for me. Imagine heavier version where you need a winch so big you need to set it on the ground to cock it like a bicycle pedal.

Thanks for the video! Very informative

[@stgcjc7902]

That's a superb design, I thought of something like this in concept, but their implementation is magnificent and professional, I wondered how long it would take before someone actually made something like this. I would call it a spear gun though, I know it fires arrows/bolts still, but it truly has no cross limbs. It's beautiful. I love the engineering of it, plus that's also why I watch the channel. That and you of course.

[@otov100]

Its limbs are just coiled up instead of (mostly) straight like other bows. Spear guns use an explosive charge to propel the spear much like a firearm.

[@midgetman4206]

@@otov100 It still retains its limbs but no longer has its cruciform that gave crossbows their name. I don't remember seeing a gunpowder based spear gun. They're usually always elastic or compressed air/liquid CO2 if you have the money.

[@otov100]

@@midgetman4206 You are correct. I have never been spear fishing and I just assumed they would use a charge like a bang stick. There are a few that have been made that way but generally just one offs. Larger harpoon cannons do use a power charge. Maybe call it a coil bow?
