My R30/50 V2

carlos · 07-09-2012, 04:35 AM

Just thought I share my latest knock about machine.
It is a R30V2
worked TT50 heli motor
50 Gearing
Constant tail drive.
FunKey 560mm blades and 92mm tails
Cyclic servo are Ino Lab 650MG
Collective is a much faster and needs to be fast on the collective of a raptor to get the collective range quickly enough to pitch pump. Savox 1258TG
Metal head with metal 14deg mixers.
running +-14deg static but less under load due to the pitch lever flexing a little.
AND a flybar of course.
Maybe one day i will fit a FBL head.
She is no X50 to fly but it is fun.

I've been flying my V2 Rappy for 4 years and I have never had the engine out or had to replace a single component on it. My 700N I have had the engine on the bench 4 or 5 times for various reasons in less than half that time.

That metal horn on the pitch servo is what I want to do..

Wow! ive had my 30 for 4 years now, the only things ive replaced are 2 ball links, and a couple glow plugs.

It's like a trusty pickup truck or something, crazy good.

Mine was my first real heli and can't get rid of it. I think I'm gonna go FBL with it again with an Align head and see what happens.
