No bricks hiding anywhere.

Status: offline 		BH,

I was wondering what position (or distance from the center) you placed the ball links on the elevator push/pull attached to the main frame. And also the distance between the center of the servo the ball links on the control horn. Or should I really just be concerned about how much the blades are pitching? I'd like to get the same manuvability as I've seen in your videos.

Thanks,

Will

Status: offline 		What is the difference between a Raptor 50 Titan and SE? If you get the Titan can it be upgraded to an SE? I have a Raptor 30 V1 and can do forward flight, nose in, circles, figure 8, but have not gotten to the auto/3D phase yet, except on the simulator. Recommendations? Titan? SE?

I'd get a Titan and when you're ready get a metal headblock and washout base.

Eitherway order PV0499 and replace the stock tail hub on whatever you buy.

http://www.acehobby.com has lots of info on what comes with each kit.
