actually I fly much better than that in my head on a daily basis. :smokin:
For some reason, linking manuvers seems to be a hard part for me, and also remembering to do all the manuvers I can.

I have a raptor 50 Se, with titan boom, push pull elevator, push pull pitch, os50 hyper, radix 600mm blades, stock muffler, jr 8311 servos, 401/9254, jr9303, atg, new 8.37 gear ratio, and plus/minus 11 degrees, with a headspeed of around 2050.
Nothing special about the set up.

its that ATG gov. I have it but i regular governor mode(basic) and he has his in ATG mode, lets just say his kicks my raptors butt!
Awsome flying! I enjoyed that video. Sure wish I could throw my heli around like that.

Was that a cheater auto at the end? Sounded an awful lot like the engine was idleing LoL. Very nice flying Im thinking about getting a raptor 50 here soon probibly after christmas. If you were gona do your raptor 50 over what gear would you use? Im gona be getting some s9254 digies that im shure will be nice for it.

nah, no cheater auto, I have my idle high, because the way my engine is tuned, the low end is rich for the mid range not to be lean. and If it idles too low the engine loads up and dies.
i think I'd use 9252's if I had it to do over again, otherwise I like my set up. It doesn't look like it needs any changes does it?

Wow those JR 8311 are very pricey I can buy futaba s9252 for $62.00 a piece and they are faster. Oh are you using PCM receiver?

yeah they are pricey, but they have nearly 130 oz in of torque. I'm using a jr r770 spcm rx with no problems at all. The only reason I would have maybe went with the 9252's is that they are faster, but I guess I don't really need it. The heli does whatever I want anyway!

There is nearly a $40.00 price difference between the 2 servos a piece that makes up my mind!! I will post some pics on here when I end up with the raptor. I agree with what you said about the 9252's being faster but here is my question. Can anybody tell a difference in flight say between a response time of .17 and .14?

i could when switching from a 9202 and a 9353 holy crap, but it may bejust a little noyicable

yeah well also the 9202 are not digital, and that makes a difference. Plus 9202 are really slow.
