The electric Hurrican 50 will be at IRCHAse this weekend. Stop and see it in the RjX tent on the flight line, it's really a awsome E 50.

Here are some build photos of the Electric Hurrican 50 with FRP frames, I received this kit yesterday at 3pm, worked on it between calls until about 10pm and then about 10 hours today with Tim Tompkins help and it just needs the main blades mounted and run the robart setup on the head

This is a great building kit, it comes with everything you need to set it up either CCPM or MPM all parts and hardware included, the electic kit you see pictured in this thread came with everything to build it glow and I just built it with the electric conversion kit, I have the exact same heli sitting here with all the Carbon and metal upgrades and will get some pic's up later today with them sitting next to each other.

RJX puts out a very hi end quality kit, and it flys better than it looks :cool:

Foxden

helibrite

Sorry skyblueblue, but our "E" conversion kit comes with the 10T and we don't offer any others yet, as this kit is set up to run on 87T main in the AS50 and the Hurrican 50.
Please let me know if you still want one?
Thanks Rusty
