What does a Raptor 30 to 50 conversion kit get me?
 
I have several heli's, one of which is a Raptor 30 v2. I have some repairs to do so, I am considering upgrading it the 50 with the conversion kit while I am at it.

What does the conversion get me? Just more power, or would I get more stability too? I am interested in adding a scale body at some time as well.. Would I be better suited to keeping it 30 sized?

Thanks!

More power/ faster
More fuel burning
The ability to run bigger blades
A longer boom.

So what does longer blades and longer boom get me other than size? Does the heli fly smoother? More stability?

The heli will handle stronger winds than the 30. You will have a lot more power (especially with an O.S 50 hyper). The longer boom will also help the stability, you'll get much more cyclic response and thats all I can think of:D
