Hi All:

I was curious where there is a on-line seller for the stretch body that covers the boom of my Raptor 90SE or even if the Raptor is an candidate for contest flying?

My LHS does not stock the stretch body for any heli's so that is why I need to find an on-line seller.

Well, thanks for any words of wisdom that you can throw my way!

Don't exactly understand what your referring to with the stretch body. Are you talking about canopy and fuselage that would make the model sleeker. As for the Raptor SE being a contest model. Any heli can be set up to fly contests. Some are just easier than others to get to the setup.
There is plenty of fuselages available, just depends on what you want. I don't know which ones will fit the Raptor. Most high end fuses like used in F3C start at about $700 and go up from there. The Staysee, Gracy, BlackShark and few others are fuses used in F3C.

Yes, I am talking about the canopy and fuselage that would make the model sleeker. I need all the help I can get! I also have an older X-Cell that I can convert to F3C/AMA usage.


Thanks for your help!

Hi Brian,

The Black Shark (and Black Shark 2) fit the R90 almost perfectly.
