It's a really beautiful piece of kit

It looks like they've put some priority on low weight.

Interested to hear what the all-up-weight turns out to be

Thanks for sharing.

I'm curious about the weight also. I think the listed weight is a typo. The specs also state the main blades are fiber glass. They sure look like cf to me. They weigh 41 grams each. I have a set of CF Halo 360's and they weight 37 grams.

Depends where you look on the site...in one section it says CF, on another it says FG....i'd say the typesetters (some will have to look that up)...went out for a liquid lunch...

Normally they use carbon blades made by Gryphon, also from Korea.

Ok pretty much finished the build. No electronics installed just what comes in the basic kit. Main blades, tail blades and canopy installed. Total weight is 517 grams. Motor, ESC, and FBL controller another 200 grams +/- Still waiting on servos and they were the first thing I ordered. Should be 98 grams So it's looking like the weight of the heli without battery should be around 820 grams. My E4 is 670 grams minus the battery

Alright

That's a pretty sensible disc load, better than a Goblin and I have 2 clones in the mail from China

Now I'm sure I 'need' a 4.8 also...

Got to be later this year, once the hobby budget permits

Does anyone know if the Acro canopy fits to the 450SE?

How is the 4.8 holding up so far? I'm seriously thinking about getting one.

Holding up extremely well. No problems whatsoever. And surprisingly no crashes after approximately 70 or so flights.

Hallo,

my Acro is 270 flights old.
Now I have to change the bearings from the tail.
That's all.
