Thanks Charley. If it is anywhere near or better that the G4 I am getting very excited. I loved my G4 and I am sad that I don't have it anymore. Keep up all of the great work. I can't wait to gut one.:)

The landing gear is one of the unique designs since the original G4, can't wait to it up close when you get back from Clints. You guys have fun, I'll be thawing out from the 28 degree temps in Cincinnati

any chance you could post a pic of a g5 sitting next to a g4 for size comparison?
i've been a g4 flyer for a looong time.

Glad to see your OUTRAGE series of helis finaly come to light Charley..
I have flown your Rotorworkz EP8 SE frame kit an it is an AWSOME upgrade to the Quick of Japan EP8 , 500 size heli!!
Looking at the G5 in the pics , it looks like the washout ass. is similar to the HDX450 washout assembly?
Does the washout ass. hit the swashplate at full cyclic like the HDX450? Or did you add a little more room for clearance? Just curious cause , I will be buying one of your first 500 size Outrages when it hits the market. We talked a few years ago and are you still planning on using 440mm size blades on your 500 Outrage?
Being unfamiliar with the G4 frame will HS65MG servos fit on the cylic and a 3400G/9650 fit on the tail ? Also what kind of collective and cyclic pitch ranges can we expect before it binds ?

Guys,
I will get some pics of the G4 and G5 comps. but the frames are nearly the same but with added features to enhance.
As for servos it will fly HS56 and HS65 servos with a true 120 degree servo layout as with G4
Pitch and cyclic Ranges are
15 degree + and - with upto 9 degree cyclic at max pitch.
