Default MD 530 Body

Hi all, where can I find a MD 530 body for my raptor 30v1 ?
I see one on tower hobbies part# LXAPHB , its for the 50 size, is it possible that I can fit it on my 30 size.

Thanks
Gio.

That is actually made for the Titan, you'd have to stretch the boom, belt, and rudder pushrod just to get the tail to fit, though the frames between the 30 and 50 are the same.

I suppose with a 37 and the above upgrades you might could get away with it.

Raptor is a hard frame to scale because of the pitch arm design.

Century Heli has some 30 size bodies and a sizing chart on their web site. I think its www.centuryheli.com

I have a raptor 30v2 in that fuse, just cut the fiberglass boom off about 1 1/2" and it works perfect!! No need to change tail boom, belt or pushrod if ya do that
