When we developed our base plate system for the Raptors, it allowed the boom supports to be relocated down to the landing gear to increase the tail boom strength.
We also experimented with longer boom supports and found a way to give even more strength and rigidity to the tail boom.
I would like to share this with everyone and hope you will give it try. The longer tail boom support modification works without our base plate system.
R50V2 and R50 SE - Use the R60 boom supports, part # PV0167
R50 Titan – Use the R90STD boom supports, part# PV0415. The R90STD supports come in charcoal gray that matches the Titan tail boom color.
We don’t run the horizontal fins, but if you do, you will still have clearance from the tail blades.
We are now experimenting with prototype 690 and 700mm tail boom supports on the R90 and also see an improvement in tail boom strength.
