| not sure what you're talking about?"Machine made of metal"
Not sure what your point is here? Most Raptor guys do a lot of upgrading to make their machines metal??
"engine too small for metal machine"
I agree, the .15 is too small. I am going electric and a lot of guys are looking to go .21-.25 with the heli since it is built like a 30 in strength.
"crummy power to weight ratio"
Like I said above... Just look at helis like the Ergo 30, Fury 50, Venture 30, and some others. They all are heavy for their size, and most guys put bigger engines in them except for the Fury 50 which they just buy the 60 to start with.
"way overpriced parts"
Q15/30/60 All metal swash - $49.00
Raptor 30 swash - $62.00, R60 Swash - $69.00
Q15 Metal Blad Grips - $59.99
R30 Metal Blade Grips - $109.00
Q15 Spindle - $4.99
R30 Spindle - $9.19
Q15 Metal Flybar control arms $24.99
R30 Metal Flybar control Arms $37.99
It's probably important to compare metal parts to metal parts. Go out and buy part for an Ergo, or DNHP, Fury, or X-Cell. You'll get the point.
"company owned by individual unqualified to pick up dog excrement much less design helicopters"
You lost your credability of being capable of saying anything that deserves respect with that last statement.
"high probability of a customer experience not soon to be forgotten"
I have had nothing but good interaction with their customer service, what's your point?
"the ugliest canopy bar none"
LOL... It IS pretty ugly, but the uglyest? I think that title goes to the Raptor V1 wouldn't you think? |
