If you didnt have to worry about motor/gearing to get optimal performance from the motor, what headspeed would you run on a 90SE with 690VBlades for Hard 3D?
Or would you run different blades maybe?

Lower HS with higher pitch or higher HS with lower pitch?

(Mine is electric, so I can pretty much gear/dialin towards any HS...)

2,600 is probably a good starting point.

Dont know what i did to offend you, but it must have been huge since you giving an advice that can kill a person.
But sure, I will try if you agree to stand as a shield between me and the heli.

I simply wonder if the Raptor 90 has a sweetspot when it comes to RPM vs Blade length contra pitch, I know my Logo has it, and my Trex as well, but since im new to the Raptor 90 Im asking here.

I've read that most fly between 1800 and 1900.

MrMel and a Raptor? MrMel is synonymous with Logo and electric.

Thanks, I currently run 690 blades at 1900, gonna try 710's and 1850 to see how it performs.

Yep, but Raptor and Electric is OK too :)
Its a E-Converted raptor 90.
