Raptor .30 V2

[Speed_Freak_039A]

I currently have a Raptor .30 V2 with a OS .37 motor and (MP2 Pipe I think). I was wondering the capabilities of this machine. It currently has JR DS537 servos. Which spec out at like .23 for speed. I know its terribly slow. I was thinking about selling it and if I went nitro to get a Align 600Nitro. But if my machine will handle quite a bit of 3D then I might consider keeping it and putting some better servos in it. I have always thought that the crash costs would be very high for it compared to my Trex 450 SE which I love. I would wait to try a stunt on my Raptor after I learned it on my Trex. Any opinions?

The engine/pipe combo you are running is one of the best for the R30. The JR 537's are probably fine if your not stick banging, however I think they have been discontinued. If in the future you need more power, buy the Hyper 50 and conversion kit for your 30.
