Hi, what is the rpm to run on the raptor50 with OS50 hyper for flip roll 3D ?

Depends on blades and head.
Anywhere from 1700 (wood blades, stock head) to 2000 (carbon blades, metal head block)

I'm running 2000 in idle 2 with a metal head and 600mm carbon blades. If you have the new gear ratio, I think people are running a little lower headspeed.

1950 would be about right for the optional gearing.

1950 would be about as high as I go with the plastic grips. I think some run as high as 2000 with plastic grips but I wouldn't recomend it.
