Others can now hide their bling under their little pinkie ring, because Century is coming out with an SE. Here an exclusive pictures of the new Swift 620 SE.
This will take 620mm blades and comes with all the metal upgrades. All up flying weight with a 6S1P pack is 6lbs.
Also coming is a new Swift 550 which comes with the carbon frame but not the metal upgrades.
The Swift 620 SE will also have a new sleeker and longer canopy, I'm hoping to get some pictures of this also.
Performance of the 620 SE on 620mm blades is reported to be beyond 90 sized nitro :)

Well it flew twice today. I had the Fromeco Reg an li-on set at 5.65 volts and I had to back that down to 5.V being it was just to fast in the air! The thing is a rocket.

I just want to hover it around a little and maybe launch it into the sky a few times. No 3D or anything :mrgreen:

Wow! That looks just like the thing I have been waiting for! Any indication of the price of this beauty?
The Swift is pretty hard to get in Europe. Does Century have dealers in Holland?
