YS 50 ST

[Bambusratte17]

Hello Helifreaks

My name is Daniel I come from Germany and I want to buy a Yamada 50ST for my Raptor 50 but in Germany is the engine not in Stock. So my question is: Where can I buy in USA or Worldwide the engine.
And sorry for my bad englisch I hope you understand me.

Greetings from the cold Germany

I know of only a couple of YS 50's in the USA. I know there is probably a few more. But I only personally know of a couple of people that actually have one. I don't believe the USA importer/distributor of YS has ever had any 50's. I don't know of any place that has had the YS 50's in stock for any period of time.

Thanks DavidH

That make me sad :( shit but thank you hmpf ok then it would be an OS 50 Hyper

Hallo Ratte :-)

Ich habe schnell auf Cyberheli geschaut und die haben den YS50 ausverkauft :-(
Hier in Australian fliegen die meisten den OS50 Hyper der sehr gut ist.
20% Nitro und der Jason Krause Schalldaempfer wird dir einen sehr hohen performance Hubschrauber geben.
Von was ich gelesen habe, empfehle ich das du dir auch einen satz "edelstahl" Kugellager kaufst, so das du die zu hause sitzen hast fuer wenn die originalen rosten.

Hy Alfred

Habs leider auch gemerkt das be Cyberheli der YS50 ausverkauft ist was ich schade finde wollte nämlich für die kommende saison einen haben wenn es also bis frühjahr keine gibt wirds ein OS 50 Hyper mit Hatori 522 muss auch mächtig abgehen

Looks like the same story as everywhere else and has been since the first batch was release in very limited numbers.

Its a nice little engine but considering all the hassle a hyper is just as good, maybe better.

[Bambusratte17]

Thank you laurens and DavidH but the engine is not Buyabel but thank you

[Laurens]

Why would they even list it when its not buyable? I think you need to ask them if they're selling them. They probably do this to avoid selling to the masses.

[DavidH]

Why would they even list it when its not buyable?

Email them and ask them. But I would think they had a few from the first batch and have not been to get any since then. So they put not buyable instead of out of stock. I seriously doubt they have any of the YS 50's. Other than the two people I know that actually have a YS 50. I have seen very few posts on any of the forums about them. So they may only be less than 200 of them in existence worldwide.

We have a guy at our field with one, its just another 50 engine really.

[Bambusratte17]

Hello BarracudaHockey

Please can you find out where this guy bought the engine ?

[BarracudaHockey]

He got it off someone on RR I think but I'll ask Sunday when I'm out there.

[DavidH]

Bambusratte,
I may be wrong. But I don't believe YS Performance that is the YS importer/distributor here in the USA. I don't believe they ever had any of the 50 size heli engines. They did have one on a display at Toledo Trade show couple of years ago. It was not a working engine from what I saw.

I sold one on RR a long time ago. I never ran it even but I got it from Cyber heli on a preorder.

I checked and I sold it to LDR in Sarcoxie, MO.

Daniel,

I have one in a Raptor.
Not so long ago, I wanted to buy another one in Japan, but none of the shops in Tokyo had one. YS is currently not producing I guess.

[BarracudaHockey]

I had a friend stationed in Japan, the poor guy must have spent what an engine would cost in gas driving around looking for one for me and came up blank.
