The little Century Sport is doing just fine. Fly's great. Really good beginner machine, although I rate the Raptor 30 ahead of it (but it should since it is $100 more).
I just need some weather to go flying in !!! T'storms every afternnoon when I could actually go flying. :(

The only thing wrong is my field is under 6 inches of water. I wonder who will be the first person to get electrocuted by an electric heli :?:

by the way, how is it doing..??
i would love to see a thread on how you buily it!! loaded with pics!
Ray-- what was the better solution, and i hear that some hawk gears are not made right, you might want to check that and see if you got a bad main gear..

Pepper,
The electric is doing well. I hope to meet with Kam in a few weeks to see if it passes the test.
I will start version 2 soon. I will try to document it better than the last one.

Hey jimmy,
I can't wait to see that thing at the next event, are you going to the invasion or are you waiting for IRCHA. I got to hover it a bit but would love to see the real power of the machine.
jwooten

I will be at the invasion. It has a new motor which I hope will generate more power with less heat. I am not sure If I will make IRCHA or not.

I am already using the outrunners. The current motor is an Actro 32-3. There is good and bad in using these.

maybe www.torcman.de. I've seen a 5 kg heli on their website.

Torcman might be good motors, but we just don't know their specs. maybe they will publish the whole set someday. Does anyone beside germany make good motors?

Are you going to start your crap over here too?
Bill, lighten up. I'm being sincere here.
I didnt write the message. It seems to me that this guy needs some help.
This is a Century Forum,
Pepper's thread is asking if everything is OK.
Everything is not OK.
I cant help it if you dont like the guys message.
Just because you dont like it, doesnt mean its crap.
I would try to help him. I have PMed the guy and asked him to speak to James. I have encouraged him to stick it out and dont give up on his investment which is probably more that you have done for him.
I am betting that Pepper will at least try.
