E Raptor is out, who is gettng one and what will be setup?

[OICU812]

As the title says. The E Raptor has finally been released. Wondering who will be getting one and if anyone has really targeted a ballistic good setup for it? :lol:

[ozace]

i will get one as soon as they are available down here.
Z-power 50 780 motor, CC hv 85, hitec 6965's and a 401/9254 to start with.

You mean the Z50A-800 Ozace or is there a different model? Also I wonder if these Z motors are in the pole range for Kontroniks or if they are over and will require a CC esc...? Anyone know.. :dontknow

[ozace]

Yup the Z50-800 (kv is really 780 though). I assume the Jazz will run it but i use the HV 85 for the amp ability. I am pulling more than 55 amps in my erap and 600 without much ability but i am trying so i am running the HV 85 's now.

Ozace Bert and a few others have been pushing the 55s with well over 80+ amps with no issues. I have ran my L14s both on 55s regularly pushing over 80 amps without issues either. Either way should be good, only thing I do not like about CC escs' now days is the pyhsical size of them and the fragile way they do the caps imho, otherwise they work pretty darn good now. :)

The E-Raptor looks very cool, can't wait to try one out sometime. :)

You gonna get one Shawn?

[MrMel]

I have one on order.

Currently have a E-Raptor (converted nitro) which I will use to complete the new E620SE.

Setup will be:
Motor: Neu 1912-1.5 or Hacker A50-12S or Z50-600 (have them all at home)
Battery: 10s1p EVO's or maybe 2 x 6s1p, depends how 10s will compare to my L14
Esc: Schultze 32.55K or CC HV85
Gyro: 401/9254 or CSM720
VBlades 600mm
Duralite Regulator
Futaba G3 Receiver

+ a sacrifical chicken to hope there is weather good enough to actually fly it...

You gonna get one Shawn?


Will, Since I could use the same lipos I hVe now for my Logo 14s, and have some servos, gyro etc available I think so, my investment would be fairly small to get going. I'll let you know for sure.
