Default Big gas heli wanted

Hi, I am looking for big gas helicopter running 30-50 ccm engine.
Do you know any reasonable priced sets or at least mechanic stuff to build one?
It has to be able to take 1-2 hour flights.

Thanks, Mark

The Rmax might fit the bill, but you better get your cheque book out, they aren't cheap.

These guys have some interesting ones
http://www.bergenrc.com/

If you look at their Industrial Twin,(Twin 26cc Zenoahs) then they state it can carry a 25 pds payload for 30 mins.
If that payload is used for fuel, then I guess that it can run for a lot more than 30 mins......

If I look at runtimes for my Zenoah powered RC Car, then I will guess at aprox 1 hour/liter pr. engine.
25 pds is aprox 12 liters of fuel, in my very unscientific calculation, then that should give you at least 6 hours flight time.

I have never built nor flown any RC Heli so I can't comment on any heli makers quality
