I learned an important lesson this year. I bought a helicopter and was fooling around with it for a few months. (A lot easier to hover.) Last week, I went down in a wooded area where I fly, can't find the damn thing. So, being on vacation and having nothing to fly, pulled the Raven out of the closet and went to it. That heli was nice, but man did I lose a lot of money not being able to find it. I am putting an engine in for someone, and when I get paid for it, I think I will just get a Burrito and stick a YS .63FZ on it.

Raven 50 huh! Where did you say you fly?
I am sorry to hear about you losing your heli. That would suck big ones. I have always been lucky at finding downed aircraft but I don't have any plans to get up Chicago way anytime soon.
I have been really hitting the profiles hard the last few weeks, my helis have been gathering dust for about a month now.
Sorry Dude,,,Matt

What happened to the profile Raven? Wasn't someone going to kit that plane?

I like it, it's pretty. I want one

I am currently flying the snot out of the Raven. It's pretty, but really heavy. Haven't got it to hover yet, but trying like heck.

I misunderstood! I thought it was the Raven 50 size heli that got lost. I'd love to find one of those out walking through the woods.

Don't give up looking for the helicopter. I have been involved in searches that were successful after 3-4 months.
