Thunder Tiger - Raptor X50

Well all I can say is that its about time... Thunder Tiger the breed that brought the Raptor 30, years ago and is still seen on many a field of britian today in either a V1 or V2 version.

Have at long last re-invented the 50 with the new X50. Due out hopefully before summer we hope so that we get to see some appearing at fly-ins and competitions around the UK.

Available in either a belt drive or tube drive and with many nice features including a frame brace between the front and rear sections of the frames to add to strength in the frame we

could be looking a heli that has another big player in its sights.

We hope that we will also soon see a flybarless conversion kit for it and if so I would suggest that it include alternative bell cranks also to assist in the geometry setup which is critical for a good mechanical setup.
