Back when I first wanted to dabble with AP, I followed a thread by DJ Vegh on how to stretch a Raptor 50 to run 680mm blades (http://www.helifreak.com/viewtopic.php?t=13715&highlight=stretch+raptor). I copied his work verbatim because he had some great ideas and was having awesome success.

The parts I'm selling have only seen about 6 flights total before I blew a rear bearing in my Hyper 50. The 680mm blades actually haven't seen any air time and are only trimmed to fit the blade grips and are balanced.

Here is a listing of the parts:

TT 680mm blades ($99.99)
JR Ergo 60 boom ($16.89) - SOLD
Raptor 30 (86T) main gear ($11.39)
Raptor 30 pinion ($7.99)
368 tooth belt ($12) - SOLD
Raptor 30/50 clutch bell ($11.99)
Bearing (~$4)
Rear T/R servo mount ($24.99) - SOLD
CF pushrod ($10.99) - SOLD
Front servo tray - modified ($12.29)

Home-made mount w/RC truck shocks ?? - attach gimbal and you're ready to take pictures!

It is recommended that you use metal blade grips with this setup. I have a set of Mavrikk metal blade grips that have low time on them. New they are $49.99. I'm only mentioning them if someone wants them, they are extra, or can be bought separately from this package.

I have over $210 invested w/o blade grips. PM me an offer shipped.
