Just got a word from my drug dealer that Mikado have released their 4mm flybar upgrade kit for the L14.
Partnumber is: 4019
Ive ordered it and some Raptor 60/90 SUS hardened flybar to test with to see how it turns out.
Will be really nice if it works, Ive bent my stock L14 flybar twice without heli even flying...

I want and need to know which control bridge this is? Is it a new one or are they using the L10 one or what...? Also I wonder Mel if this flybar you speak of is same length or not 450mm? A flybar at 470mm imho would be perfect for this heli, as the 500 is too long and abit more speed on cyclic would be acheivable with a 470 ish..mm flybar, at least I think.....

Raptor 90 is 500, But Im planning of shortening it a bit, Will see if that is possible when I get it.

As I already told Shawn, mine was done several months ago, and we had to drill out the alu bits to fit the flybar, as there wasn't a real kit yet.
I just measured my flybar and it is about 480mm, (I didn't take the paddles off so that could be off a little. I can say this, It made the heli very agile, so much that I freaked a little the first time I lifted into a hover.......

Will be hard to cut off 1.5cm on each side, however, 1cm would be possible, which would equal in a 480mm flybar.
Stiffness difference of the Raptor SUS flybar and the Logo is very noticable.
