Victor Thruster F C Ultra CX

2023-2024 Thruster F C Ultra flagship (4U/G5 only, fixed 6.0 mm shaft); predecessor to the 2025 X redesign and still actively retailed.

Victor Thruster Verified spec
Best for Advanced Power / Attack

BadmintonLabs TakeStiff, head-heavy power frame — puts mass behind the smash. A light 4U build, strung up to 32 lb.

Community verdict ★ 4.5 (130) C-Series Thruster Ultra with refined feel; slightly more forgiving than the base F Ultra.
What makes it special
  • POWER BOX — Box-shape frame profile that increases stability and anti-torque, Thruster signature.
  • HARD CORED TECHNOLOGY — Multi-layer carbon + composite construction in the head, minimizes material with reinforced feel.
  • FREE CORE — Computer-designed T-joint that lets the shaft flex freely for smoother swings.
