Heli's definitely help with the left stick. I saw Curtis' 9303 that he converted to single stick.
The last time I had my raptor out my friend told me he was officially grounding it until I change the motor Bearings. We looked and I have 61 hrs.
on it and still on the same bearings(O.S. Hyper 50). I hope the next set lasts that long. I think I've got my money's worth out of it. I have the Kasama setup for 12.5+/- , Radix Blades, 8.7 Gears, Kasama Fan, MP 2, 1950 h.s., and always ran Cool Power 15%MV.
I pulled out my 600np last night and started doing some work on it. I traded my old 68" Extreme Flight yak for the 600, tore it down about 6 months ago to do some upgrades, and it has been sitting on the shelf since then. I still had my old trusty raptor 50 to fly so it wasn't at the top of the list. It's crazy because i've got 7 Heli's and only fly one. Now that I Just finished my 110" Yak it is time to get the T-Rex going.
Here's what it's going to have.
T-rex 600N Pro
OS Hyper 50
Hatori Bobby Watts
TST V-Blades
Curtis Super Stubs w/440mm Flybar
Radix Tail Blades
3- Futaba 9452's Swash w/Align servo Wheels
1- Futaba 9252 Throttle
Futaba 611 Gyro
Rev Max
Arizona Regulator
Flight Power 2s Lipo
G-Force V2 High Efficiency Fan
K&B Orange 3D Dampeners
I'm looking forward to flying the 600. The two main things I don't like about the Raptor 50 are the Collective doesn't feel crisp and in a fast dive it will pitch suddenly. I pretty much narrowed the mushy collective down to the Plastic pitch arm flexing. The CCPM on the T-Rex should eliminate that and the under slung fly bar should eliminate the pitching.
