Raptor60 StockUP

[EdgeCrusher]

Hello all!

Im a happy new owner of a Raptor 60/YS.61. Im a little unfortunate to not have hobby stores that stock anything raptor Related around here. SO my question to you guys is what would you recommend i get or have on had for parts and field Equipment. I have a 12V starter with 6mm Starting Shaft/Fuel Pump/and some misc building tools for my airplanes but anything you guys would suggest will be well appreciated.


Thank you in advance

Well, considering that none one more experienced jumped in I'll say what I think (take it like it comes from another newbie)
If you are learning to fly, I would get either a crash kit or at least the following parts:
flybar rod, flybar control rods, spindle, main shaft, set of skids, rear frame set, fuel tank, tail bevel gear, tail control fork, and blades (both main & tail).
Those I think are the most common ones
It doesn't matter which pieces you have you'll always break the one that's missing (Murphy's).
If you look I think shops like heliproz wont charge you for shipping in orders of $100+ and they stock everything for the Raptors (I bought mine there while I was in Montana, actually I drove 5hrs to check the shop and have a chance to chat with some heli people). They are very patience too (they managed to put up with me :mrgreen: )
If you think is bad in MN try to move to Costa Rica :roll: :roll: :roll:
Hope this help, at least until someone more experienced jumps in.
