Default Raptor 30 Govenor?

Is it worth putting a govenor on a raptor 30? From what I've seen it seems like most people don't bother with one.

I don't have one on mine and even though the Raptor 30 will do some 3D maneuvers you just need to be mindful of your pitch so not to over rev your engine.

Are you refering to over pitching, bogging the engine down, then when it catches up it over revs?

When you bring it down too quick with negative pitch and over rev the motor.

In either case I haven't had any trouble running with out a governor, but I don't get too wild in the air.

Is it worth it depends on you?

They make life easier on any nitro heli, but some cyclic to throttle mixing helps with bogging, nothing helps with over speeding except adding pitch to load the head down a little
